ACSR is a composite, concentrically stranded conductor in which the light weight and good conductivity of aluminium are combined with the high tensile strength of steel. It is composed of one or more layers of EC grade hard-drawn aluminium wires helically stranded around an inner core of high strength zine-coated steel wires. The inner steel core may be a single zinc-coated steel wire, or concentrically stranded of one or more layer of zinc-coated steel wires. ACSR is a concentrically stranded conductor composed of one or more layers of hard-drawn 1350H19 aluminum wire stranded with a high strength coated steel core. The core maybe single wire or stranded depending on the size.The proportions of aluminum and steel can be varied to obtain the relation between current-carrying capacity and mechanical strength best suited to each application. The Core of Conductor is made of galvanized steel wires drawn from high carbon steel rods. The No. of steel wire vary from 1 to 7. The other layers of Conductors are formed by hard drawn Aluminum Wires drawn from E.C. Grade Aluminum, successive layers containing 6, 12, 18, 24 wires depending upon size of Conductors.

Aluminum Alloy Conductor (AAAC) manufactured out of this aluminum alloy 6201 (minimum conductivity 54%), have a better corrosion resistance and a better strength to weight ratio. On an equal diameter basis AAAC conductors possess higher electrical conductivity than ACSR conductors. These conductors are designed to get better strength to weight ratio and offer improved electrical properties, excellent sag-tension characteristics, and superior corrosion resistance when compared with ACSR. As compared to a conventional ACSR conductor, the lighter weight, comparable strength & current carrying capacity, lower electrical losses and superior corrosion resistance have given AAAC a wide acceptance in the distribution and medium & high voltage transmission lines.

All Aluminium Conductors (AAC) are manufactured from electrolytically refined (E.C.Grade) aluminium, containing a minimum of 99.5% aluminium by weight. The aluminium used has a minimum conductivity of 61%. AAC conductors are used mainly in urban areas where the spacing between supports is small and thereby the supports are relatively closer to each other. All Aluminium Conductors are made up of one or more strands of aluminium wire depending on the required current carrying capacity and used specially as bus conductors at sub-stations. AAC conductors are also used extensively in coastal areas because they have a very high degree of corrosion resistance.
The stranded All Aluminium Conductor (AAC) are made up of concentric-lay-stranded aluminium wires only The conductor may be made up of 7, 19, 37, 61 or more wires in 1, 2, 3, 4 or more layers around a central wire. Each successive layer shall have six more wires than the layer immediately beneath. For a given cross-sectional area, the conductor becomes more flexible as the number of wires is increased (with a corresponding decrease in size of each wire).
