Product Overview
QZ Cable supplies ACSR-OC, ACSR/AW-OC, and ACSR/AW-TR/OC aerial insulated conductors for medium-voltage overhead power distribution networks. Designed for rated voltage applications from 6.6 kV to 22.9 kV, these products combine stranded reinforced conductors with weather-resistant XLPE insulation.
The conductor designs are intended for overhead installations under normal service conditions. They must be installed using insulators and/or spacers suitable for the system voltage. Compatibility between the cable covering, insulators, spacers, and other installation components should also be considered.
The product series includes conventional ACSR reinforced conductors and ACSR/AW designs incorporating aluminum-clad steel wires. Depending on the type, the insulation system may also include a semi-conductive layer or an additional anti-tracking layer.
