    Application

    Covered line aluminum cable is used primarily for overhead secondary distribution lines.It is not an electrically insulated conductor and is treated as bare conductor when installed. There are a wide range of applications in the electrical industry including overhead transmission, service entrances, street lighting, temporary power supply and renewable energy projects. Here are some of the common applications of covered line wire aluminum conductor:

    Overhead power transmission

    Covered line aluminum conductor cable is widely used for overhead power transmission and distribution lines in rural areas and other locations where underground cables are not feasible. Its high strength-to-weight ratio and resistance to corrosion make it an ideal choice for long-distance transmission.

    Service entrance:

    It is also used for service entrance wires that connect the utility’s power lines to the customer’s premises. It is typically installed between the utility pole and the building’s main electrical panel.

    Street lighting:

    Covered line wire aluminum conductor cable is often used for street lighting applications where it is hung on utility poles and connected to a lighting fixture. It is ideal for this application because it is lightweight and can be easily strung across long distances.

    Temporary power supply:

    It can be used as a temporary power supply during construction projects, events, or emergencies. It can be strung across a site or location and connected to a portable power source.

    Renewable energy:

    Covered line wire aluminum conductor cable is also used for connecting renewable energy sources such as solar or wind farms to the power grid. It can handle high-voltage power transmission over long distances, making it an ideal choice for renewable energy projects.

    Construction

    The central aluminum conductor cable is typically made up of several strands of aluminum wire twisted together to form a single conductor. The number and size of the strands can vary depending on the required strength and conductivity.
