1、Designation: B231/B231M 16Standard Specification forConcentric-Lay-Stranded Aluminum 1350 Conductors1This standard is issued under the fixed designation B231/B231M; the number immediately following the designation indicates the yearof original adoption or, in the case of revision, the year of last r

2、evision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval.A superscript epsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.This standard has been approved for use by agencies of the U.S. Department of Defense.1. Scope1.1 This specification covers aluminum 135

3、0-H19 (extrahard), 1350-H16 or -H26 (34 hard), 1350-H14 or -H24 (12hard), and 1350-H142 or -H242 (12 hard), bare concentric-lay-stranded conductors constructed with a straight round centralwire surrounded by one or more layers of helically layed wires.The conductors are for general use for electrica

4、l purposes(Explanatory Note 1 and Note 2).1.2 The values stated in either SI units or inch-pound unitsare to be regarded separately as standard. The values stated ineach system may not be exact equivalents; therefore, eachsystem shall be used independently of the other. Combiningvalues from the two

5、systems may result in non-conformancewith the standard.1.2.1 For density, resistivity and temperature, the valuesstated in SI units are to be regarded as standard.NOTE 1Prior to 1975, aluminum 1350 was designated as ECaluminum.NOTE 2The aluminum and temper designations conform to ANSIStandard H35.1/

6、H35.1M. Aluminum 1350 corresponds to Unified Num-bering System A91350 in accordance with Practice E527.NOTE 3Sealed conductors that are intended to prevent longitudinalwater propagation and are further covered/insulated are also permittedwithin the guidelines of this specification.2.
