15kV-25kV-35kV-46kV  Aerial Bundled Spacer Cable Tree Wire 

 

 

Application

 

Used for primary and secondary overhead distribution where limited space is available or desirable for rights of way. Installed as an uninsulated conductor; however, covering is effective in
preventing direct shorts and instantaneous flashovers should tree limbs or other objects contact conductors in such close proximity. Installed with other Covered Aerial MV cables and a supporting
messenger through a series of space-maintaining devices (spacers). The resulting close-proximity configuration minimizes the amount of space and hardware required for line installation; particularly useful in congested areas such as alleyways or tight corridors.
