8、orming to Specification B6.6. Stranding6.1 The strand shall have a left lay with a uniform pitch ofnot more than 16 times the nominal diameter of the strand. Aleft lay is defined as a counter-clockwise twist away from theobserver. Stranding shall be sufficiently close to ensure nosignificant reducti

9、on in diameter when stressed to 10 % of theminimum breaking strength.7. Preforming Strand7.1 Preformed strand shall be supplied when so specified bythe purchaser. Strand is preformed when the component wiresare set to the helical form which they assume in the product byany means of process other tha

10、n by merely laying them aboutthe strand core.8. Breaking Strength and Weight8.1 The approximate weight per unit length of strand andthe minimum breaking strength of the finished strand shall beas specified in Table 1.8.2 A test in which the breaking strength is below theminimum specified and which m

(25.4 mm) of the jaws,or by the improper socketing of a specimen shall be disre-garded and another sample from the same coil or reel shall betested.1This specification is

Elongation9.1 The elongation of the strand in 24 in. (610 mm),determined as specified in 9.2, shall be not les

14、s than 5 % for thehigh-strength and for the516-in. (7.94-mm), 3-wire utilitiesgrades, and 4 % for the extra-high-strength and for the “-in.(9.52-mm), 7-wire Utilities grades.9.2 The elongation shall be measured as the percentageincrease in separation between the jaws of the testing machinefrom the p

15、osition after application of the initial load, to theposition at initial failure in the test specimen. The separation ofthe jaws of the testing machine shall be approximately 2 ft(0.61 m) when under an initial load equal to 10 % of therequired minimum breaking strength of the strand. The elon-gation

16、 values shall be recorded only for specimens that breakover 1 in. (25.4 mm) from jaws of the testing machine.10. Ductility of Steel10.1 The individual wires of the completed strand shall notfracture when wrapped at a rate not exceeding 15 turns perminute in a close helix of at least two turns around

17、 a cylindricalmandrel equal to three times the nominal diameter of the wireunder test.11. Weight of Coating11.1 The weight of zinc coating shall not be less than thatspecified in Table 2.11.2 Weight of Coating TestThe zinc coating shall betested for weight by a stripping test in accordance with Test

18、Method A 90/A 90M.12. Adherence of Coating12.1 The zinc coating shall adhere to the wire withoutdelaminating and without being removable by rubbing with thebare fingers after the individual wires have been wrapped at arate not exceeding 15 turns per minute, in a close helix of atleast two turns arou

19、nd a cylindrical mandrel equal to threetimes the nominal diameter of the wire under test. Loosening ordetachment during the adhesion tests of superficial, smallparticles of zinc formed by mechanical polishing of the surfaceof zinc-coated wire shall not be considered cause for rejection.13. Joints an

20、d Splices13.1 There shall be no joints of any kind made in thefinished wire entering into the construction of the strand.13.2 Electric-welded butt joints made prior to the start ofcold drawing of the wire are permitted; however, no electric-welded butt joints of the wire shall be made during the col

21、ddrawing application.13.3 There shall be no strand joints or strand splices in anylength of the completed strand.14. Permissible Variations in Wire Size14.1 The diameter of the zinc-coated wire forming thestrand shall conform to the nominal diameter shown in Table 1within a tolerance of 60.004 in. (

22、0.102 mm) for Wire Sizes0.104 in. (2.642 mm) and 0.120 in. (3.048 mm) and 60.005 in.(0.127 mm) for Wire Sizes 0.145 in. (3.683 mm) and 0.165 in.(4.191 mm).15. Workmanship, Finish, and Appearance15.1 The zinc-coated wire shall be uniform in diameter andshall be free from splints, scales, inequalities

23、, flaws, and otherimperfections not consistent with good commercial practice.The coating shall be continuous and reasonably uniform.16. Sampling16.1 The number of samples to be taken shall be determinedby lot size as follows:Lot Size Number of Samples1 to 3 reels 1 from each reel4to30reels 3min31 re

24、els or greater 4 min16.2 Each sample taken shall be subjected to all testsprescribed in Sections 6, 8, and 9.16.3 In addition to the strand testing in 16.2 the individualwires from the strand samples shall be tested for compliancewith Sections 10, 11, 12, and 14. Select all three wires inthree-wire

25、strand, and four of the wires in seven-wire strand.Individual wire samples selected for compliance to Section 14shall be discarded if any distortion of the wire occurred duringthe stranding operation.TABLE 1 Physical Properties of Zinc-Coated Steel Overhead Ground Wire StrandNominal Diameterof Stran

If thetolerances shown above are rigidly applied to such irregularities that are inherent to the product, unjustified rejections of wire that would actually be sat

Therefore, it is intended that these tolerances be used in gaging the uniform areas of the galvanized wire.TABLE 2 Minimum Weights of CoatingNominal Diameterof Coated Wire,in.
