About this document
Types of Conductors in Transmission Lines by Naresh Gollapalli is a document available to read on EtoBox.
This document discusses the seven main types of conductors used for transmitting electric power: 1) Stranded hard drawn copper 2) Aluminum 3) Steel-cored aluminum 4) Galvanized steel 5) Cadmium copper 6) Copper-clad steel 7) Phosphor bronze. Each type is described in terms of its conductivity, tensile strength, cost, applications, advantages and disadvantages. Hard drawn copper is the best conductor but aluminum is now more commonly used due to its lower cost and availability. Steel-cored aluminum conductor
