SERVICE DROP
CABLE - TRIPLEX

600 VOLT SECONDARY UD - QUADRUPLEX

APPLICATION:

To supply power from the utility’s lines to the consumer’s weatherhead. For service at 600 volts or less (phase to phase) at a conductor temperature of 75°C maximum for polyethylene insulation or 90°C maximum for crosslinked polyethylene (XLP) insulated conductors.

PRODUCT FEATURES:

Conductors are concentrically stranded, compressed 1350-H19 aluminum. Insulated with either polyethylene or XLP crosslinked polyethylene. Neutral messengers are concentrically stranded 6201, AAC or ACSR.

STANDARDS:

Service drop cable meets or exceeds the following ASTM specifications:

B-230 Aluminum Wire, 1350-H19 for Electrical Purposes

B-231 Aluminum Conductors, Concentric-Lay-Stranded

B-232 Aluminum Conductors, Concentric-Lay-Stranded,
   Coated Steel Reinforced (ACSR)

B-399 Concentric-Lay-Stranded, 6201-T81 Aluminum Alloy Conductors

B-901 Compressed Round Stranded Aluminum Conductors
   Using Single Input Wire

ANSI/ICEA S-76-474

* Note: Designated sizes are ACSR 6/1 diameter equivalent resistivity per ASTM-B-399 for 6201. Conductor temperature of 90°C for XLP, 75°C for Poly; ambient temperatures of 40°C; emissivity 0.9; 2ft/sec. wind in sun.
** To determine current ampacity by conductor size, please consult The National Electric Code, latest edition.
The data is approximate and subject to normal manufacturing tolerances.
