1、Designation: B 786 02aStandard Specification for19 Wire Combination Unilay-Stranded AluminumConductors for Subsequent Insulation1This standard is issued under the fixed designation B 786; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or, in the case of revis
2、ion, the year of last revision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon (e) indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope1.1 This specification covers bare combination unilay-stranded conductors made from round wires of alumi
3、num 1350and 8000 series of aluminum alloys, for insulated conductorsfor electrical purposes. Aluminum 1350 wires in tempers -H19(extra hard), -H16 or -H26 (34 hard), -H14 or -H24 (12 hard),and -H142 or -H242 (12 hard) and 8000 series aluminum alloyswires in tempers “0” and H1X or H2X are permitted.
4、Theseconductors shall be constructed with a central core wiresurrounded by two layers of helically laid wires, resulting in anouter diameter equal to the compressed-stranded equivalentconductors.NOTE 1For the purpose of this specification, combination unilayconductor is defined as follows: a central
5、 core wire surrounded by a layerof six helically laid wires of the same diameter as the core wire with ahelically laid outer layer containing six smaller wires alternated betweensix wires of the same diameter as the wires in the layer underneath. Bothlayers have a common length and direction of lay
6、(see Fig. 1).1.1.1 For the purpose of this specification, normal conductorclassification (Class AA, A, B, C) is not applicable, as theseconductors are intended for subsequent insulation. The descrip-tive term combination unilay-stranded shall be used in place ofconductor classification (Note 2 and N
7、ote 3).NOTE 2Prior to 1975, aluminum 1350 was designated as EC alumi-num.NOTE 3The aluminum and temper designations conform to ANSIStandard H35.1. Aluminum 1350 corresponds to Unified NumberingSystem A91350 in accordance with Practice E 527. Unified NumberingSystem alloy designations for 8000 Series
8、 aluminum alloys in accordancewith Practice E 527 are listed in Table number 1 of Specification B 800.1.2 The values stated in inch-pound or SI units are to beregarded separately as standard. The values in each system arenot exact equivalents; therefore, each system shall be usedindependently of the
9、 other. Combining values from the twosystems may result in nonconformance with the specification.1.2.1 For density, resistivity and temperature, the valuesstated in SI units are to be regarded as standard.2.
