Introducing the innovative high-tech Composite Core, a state-of-the-art, lightweight, and exceptionally strong core crafted from a blend of carbon and glass fibers and engineered through the advanced pultrusion process, this core is specifically designed for application in overhead conductors. Boasting a unique hybrid structure, its density is impressively 70% lower than that of a traditional steel core. Even more remarkable, when compared at equal diameters, its strength surpasses that of a steel core by an impressive 150% to 200%.
The Composite Core finds its niche in High Temperature-Low Sag (HTLS) ACCC conductors, showcasing its exceptional capabilities. Its heightened strength and reduced weight lead to a 27% increase in the cross-sectional area of the aluminium segment within ACCC conductors, outperforming both ACSR and ACSS conductors.
The Composite Core's minimal linear thermal expansion plays a pivotal role in ensuring ACCC conductors maintain negligible sag even under high-temperature conditions, setting them apart from conventional alternatives. This distinctive property makes our Composite Core-equipped ACCC conductors ideal for transmission lines characterized by extended span lengths. Furthermore, these conductors enable the use of towers with reduced height and weight, offering a compelling solution for cutting-edge transmission projects.
The composite core, due to its anti-corrosion properties and high resistance to harsh environmental conditions, is particularly well-suited for use in areas with adverse weather, such as coastal and industrial regions where corrosion is a significant issue. These features, combined with its lightweight and high strength, extend the service life of power transmission lines and significantly reduce maintenance and repair costs. Additionally, the use of this core in ACCC conductors helps to reduce energy losses along transmission lines, playing a crucial role in improving the efficiency of power delivery systems.
