SDW Cable, UL Cable, Service drop cable

Application

To supply 120 volts aerial service for temporary service at construction sites, outdoor or street lighting. For service at 600 volts or lower at conductor temperatures not to exceed 75°C for polyethylene insulated conductors or 90°C for crosslinked polyethylene (XLP) insulated conductors.

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

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.
