AL59

AL59 Alloy conductors are used in power transmission and distribution lines for a wide voltage range (low to ultra-high voltage). These conductors have higher current carrying capacity and lower losses due to DC resistance. AL59 conductors have high corrosion resistance, making them most suited for deployment in coastal regions.

Their high tensile strength makes them suitable for long-span installations and harsh environmental conditions, ensuring efficient and reliable power transmission. Following is the chemical composition: (Al): Approximately 98%, (Mg): Around 0.6% to 0.9%, (Si): About 0.5% to 0.7%, (Fe): Maximum 0.5%, (Cu): Maximum 0.1%, Residuals up to 0.15%.
