ACCC® is produced using 1350-O (fully annealed) aluminum.

1) Minimum hub diameter of the conductor reel must meet the requirements of CTC F-750-032.
2) Strength at ambient temperature. Based on 96% of the 1350-O minimum tensile strength (8500 psi/58.6 Mpa) and 100% of the composite core mininum
tensile strength (310 ksi/2137 Mpa).

3) Maximum operating temperature of ACCC® is 180°C and a maximum emergency temperature of 200°C (10,000 hours over the life of the conductor).

4) Conditions: 2 ft/s (0.6 m/s) wind, 0 ft (0 m) Elevation, 0.5 Emis. 0.5 absorp., 25°C Ambient temp., 96 W/sq. ft (1033 W/sq. m) sun radiation
*ASTM name designation: mm² nominal aluminum area/mm² nominal core area/mm nominal diameterx10 (nominal kcmil aluminum)
**ACCC® Conductors are required to exhibit lay lengths (ratios) that conform to ASTM B 857 or EN 50540.
***Different configurations among conductor manufacturers may result in slight variations within the parameters of indicated values for a given size in
accordance with the stated specification.
