High Temperature Thermal Resistant Alloy Conductor
These are high ampacity conductors with inner core composed of Aluminium clad Invar Wire. INVAR is a metal alloy with 36% Ni in Steel. & outer layer composed of Super Thermal Resistant Aluminium alloy with round or trapezoidal shaped wires.
CONSTRUCTION
Aluminium-Zirconium wires (Type-AT3), concentrically stranded over a Aluminium Clad Invar Steel core.
