Hard drawn aluminium conductor
The main application of AAC conductor is in overhead transmission and distribution lines in urban areas. AAC conductor has a good strength-to-weight ratio, high conductivity, and relatively low cost. It is preferred over other conductors in many situations.
AAC conductors are light weight, cost effective, easy to handle and install.
