The reinforcement of conductors, such as ACSR, ACSS, and AACSR, to withstand mechanical forces is usually achieved through the integration of galvanized steel wires. Galvanization involves the application of a protective coating onto bare steel wires to prevent rusting and oxidation.

The Zinc - 5% Aluminium - Mischmetal alloy coating, commonly referred to as Galfan, represents a specialized protective layer applied to steel wires utilized within the core of overhead conductors. Galfan-Coated steel wires show a corrosion-resistance twice as galvanized  steel wires.

Aluminium-clad steel wire is known as Alumoweld (AW). By integrating Aluminium-clad steel wires into the core of overhead conductors, as opposed to conventional galvanized wires, the risk of galvanic cell formation is significantly minimized, thus enhancing the conductor's operational lifespan.
