3、on 9.1 in January 2016.1. Scope1.1 This specification covers round, aluminum-clad steelcore wire with two designations of tensile strengths, AW2(Normal Strength) and AW3 (High Strength).1.2 The values stated in either SI units or inch-pound unitsare to be regarded separately as standard. The values
4、stated ineach system may not be exact equivalents; therefore, eachsystem shall be used independently of the other. Combiningvalues from the two systems may result in non-conformancewith the standard.1.2.1 For conductor sizes designated by AWG, the require-ments in SI units have been numerically conv
5、erted fromcorresponding values stated or derived in inch-pound units. Forconductor sizes designated by SI units only, the requirementsare stated or derived in SI units.2.

8、lace of manufacture(see 14.1).4. Materials and Manufacture4.1 The base metal shall be steel produced by the open-hearth, electric-furnace, or basic-oxygen process and shall beof such composition that the finished clad wire shall have theproperties and characteristics prescribed in this specification
9、.4.2 The aluminum used for cladding shall have a purity andquantity sufficient to meet thickness and resistance require-ments of this specification (see 7.1 and 9.1).5. Tensile Properties5.1 RequirementsThe aluminum-clad steel core wire shallconform to the tensile requirements prescribed in Table 1
10、andTable 2. Purchasers of core intended for use in conductorconstructions with annealed aluminum wires, such as ACSS/AW3, ACSS/TW/AW3 may request the stranded steel core becompliant only with ultimate tensile strength and may waivecompliance with the 1 % extension tensile requirement. Thisuse of the
11、 ultimate tensile requirement as an alternate to the 1% extension requirement shall be by agreement between thepurchaser and producer and shall be noted on product compli-ance documentation. In computing stress at 1 % extension andultimate tensile strength, the actual diameter of the finishedwire sh

It shall be attached to the testspecimen at a load equal to the initial tensile stress
13、 shown inTable 3 and Table 4. At this load the extensometer shall beadjusted to the initial setting shown in Table 3 and Table 4.1This specification is under the jurisdiction of ASTM Committee B01 onElectrical Conductors and is the direct responsibility of Subcommittee B01.06 onBi-Metallic Conductor

United States1Upon application of further load, the tension shall be read at anext
16、ensometer reading of 1.0 % to determine conformance withthe requirement in Table 1 and Table 2. Further elongation shallbe observed while applying a tension load to the specimen. Theelongation thus determined shall be not less than 1.5 % in 10.0in. 250 mm. A test in which the extensometer reading is
17、 lessthan 1.5 % shall be disregarded if the fracture occurs less than1.0 in. 25 mm from either attachment. In this case, anotherspecimen from the same reel or coil shall be tested.5.3 The tension tests shall be made in accordance with TestMethods E8. The method for determining elongation is de-scrib
18、ed in the Procedures Section of Test Methods E8.6. Dimensions and Permissible Variations6.1 The size shall be expressed by the wire diameter indecimals of an inch to the nearest 0.0001 in. 0.003 mm.6.2 Within the range of diameters included in Table 5 thewire shall not vary from the nominal diameter
19、 by more than theamounts shown in this table. In computing permissiblevariations, diameters shall be rounded to the nearest 0.0001 in.0.003 mm.6.3 If accessible, one measurement shall be taken near eachend and one near the middle of the coil or reel. In the case ofreels, the center and one end may n

If any of the selected coils or reels fail toconform to the requirements as prescribed in 6.2, all coils orreels shall be measured in the manner specified.7. Thickness of Aluminum7.1 The aluminu
21、m thickness at any point shall be not lessthan 10 % of the nominal wire radius. Measurements shall beread to the nearest 0.001 in. 0.03 mm. In determining therequired or measured thickness, fractions of 0.0005 in. 0.013mm or less shall be dropped and for fractions of greater than0.0005 in. 0.013 mm,
22、 the next larger 0.001 in. 0.003 mmshall be used.7.2 Measurements shall be made by using suitable electricalindicating instruments operating on the permeameter principle,or by direct measurement. For referee purposes, direct mea-surement shall be used to determine aluminum thickness onspecimens take
23、n from the ends of the coils.8. Density8.1 For the purpose of calculating mass, cross sections, etc.,the density of the wire shall be taken as 0.2381 lb/in.3(6.590g/cm3) at 20C.9.

Joints10.1 There shall be no jo
34、ints of any kind made in thefinished wire.10.2 Joints may be made in the rods or semifinished wiresprior to drawing to final size. The finished wire at such jointsshall meet the requirements of 7.1.10.3 Welding equipment and procedure shall be such that itcan be demonstrated that the ultimate tensil

Finish11.1 Th
36、e surface of the wire shall be smooth and free fromimperfections not consistent with good commercial practice.12. Number of Tests12.1 One test specimen shall be taken from each lot of tencoils as clad and drawn, before splitting into individual coils,and tested to determine compliance with Sections
37、5, 6, 7, 9, and13.13. Torsion Test13.1 The wire shall withstand without fracture not less than20 twists in a length equivalent to 100 times the nominaldiameter of the wire. In this test, the specimen shall be grippedat its ends in vises, one of which shall be free to movelongitudinally during the te

The specimen shall be twisted by rotating one of thevises at a rate of approximately 15 twists/min in the samedirection until fracture occurs. The number of twists shall beindicated by a counter or
39、other suitable device.13.2 Specimens after twisting to destruction shall not revealany seams, pits, slivers, or surface imperfections of sufficientmagnitude to indicate inherent defects or imperfections in thewire. Examination of the wire at the break shall show noseparation of the aluminum from the

The manufacturershall afford the inspector representing the purchaser all reason-able facilities necessary to ensure that the material is beingfurnished in accordance with this
41、 specification.15. Rejection15.1 If the wire fails in the first test to meet any require-ments of this specification, two additional tests for theserequirements shall be made on specimens of wire from thesame coil or reel. If failure occurs in either of these tests, thelot of wire shall be rejected.
42、 However, the lot may beresubmitted for inspection by testing every coil or reel for therequirement which caused the specimen to fail and sorting outthe defective coils or reels.16. Product Marking16.1 A weather-resistant tag shall be attached to the outsideof each coil or reel showing the manufactu
43、rers name ortrademark with the approximate length, net mass, and nominalsize of wire. Each coil shall also have a tag inside the wrappingshowing the manufacturers name, the size, approximatelength, and net mass. If additional information is required thisshall be arranged with the manufacturer at the
44、 time ofpurchase.17. Packaging and Shipping17.1 Package size shall be agreed upon by the manufacturerand the purchaser in the placing of individual purchase orders.17.2 The wire shall be protected against damage in ordinaryhandling and shipping.18.
