Service Drop Duplex
Duplex Overhead Aluminum Conductor (Service Drop).
Applications
Where it is used
- To supply power aerial service for temporary service at construction sites, outdoor or street lighting. For service at 600 volts or lower at a conductor temperature of 75°C maximum for polyethylene insulation or 90ºC maximum for cross linked insulation.
Construction
What it's built from
- Construction
- Concentrically stranded, compressed 1350-H19 aluminum conductor, cross-linked polyethylene (XLP) or polyethylene (PE) insulation, concentrically stranded AAC, ACSR, or AAAC 6201 alloy neutral messenger.
- Options
- Ridged Phase ID
