مغزی فولادی با روکش آلومینیوم کلد (AW)

Steel core with aluminum coating is called Clad core (AW), Pooya Power company is the only producer of clad cores in different sizes and with different grades of aluminum in the country. Using this core instead of a galvanized core increases the life of the conductor due to the reduction of corrosion due to the formation of a galvanic cell (reaction of two dissimilar metals). This core is used in ACSR, AACSR, ACSS, OPGW and guard wire . It is worth mentioning that by using this core, the weight of the wire is reduced compared to the wire produced with a galvanized core, while the tension to weight ratio remains almost constant. The use of aluminum in the clad core increases the conductivity of the conductor and decreases the electrical resistance. Reducing the weight of the wire due to the use of this core instead of the galvanized core can also reduce the weight of the mast and its fittings.

Today, the use of aluminum conductors with clad cores in polluted industrial and urban areas and in coastal provinces is one of the requirements of the Ministry of Energy.
