ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE In an ACSR conductor the aluminum strands are helically wound on the steel core in one or more layers, the strands in each layer being circumferentially spaced from one another to provide clearances which accommodate changes of length of the strands due to thermal expansion, thereby avoiding the subjection of the strands to compressive stresses at high temperatures which would augment the tensile stress in the steel core and thus increase the conductor sag. The invention also envisages con- trolling the amount of slack in the aluminum conductor strands for controlling the stress/temperature characteristics thereof. The invention also envisages the use of strands having a trun- cated segmental cross-section in order to reduce creep. .
