4 Sistem označevanja
4.1 Sistem označevanja se uporablja za identificiranje vrvi, izdelanih iz aluminija, z jeklenimi žicami ali brez
njih.
4.2 Homogeni aluminijski vodniki so označeni z ALx, kjer x pomeni vrsto aluminija. Homogeni jekleni
vodniki, oplaščeni z aluminijem, so označeni z yzSA, kjer y pomeni vrsto jekla (stopnja A ali B, uporabno
samo za razred 20SA), z pa predstavlja razred aluminijskega oplaščenja (20, 27, 30 ali 40).

4.3 Sestavljeni jekleni vodniki z aluminijskim/cinkovim oplaščenjem so označeni z ALx/STyz, kjer ALx
pomeni zunanje aluminijske žice (ovoj), STyz pa pomeni jekleno jedro. Pri oznaki jeklenih žic,
oplaščenih s cinkom, y pomeni vrsto jekla (stopnje 1 do 6) in z vrsto cinkovega oplaščenja (A do E).

4.4  Sestavljeni aluminijski/z aluminijem oplaščeni jekleni vodniki so označeni z ALx/yzSA, kjer ALx
označuje zunanje aluminijske žice (ovoj) in yzSA jekleno jedro kot v 4.2.

4.5 Vodniki so identificirani na naslednji način:
(a) s kodno številko, ki navaja nazivno površino aluminija ali jekla, kar je ustrezno, zaokroženo na
celo število;
(b) z oznako, ki identificira vrsto žic, iz katerih je sestavljen vodnik. Pri sestavljenih vodnikih se prvi
opis nanaša na ovoj, drugi pa na jedro.

1. točki.
5.2 Dimenzije vodnikov
Seznami dimenzij vodnikov, ki se pogosto uporabljajo v nekaterih državah članicah, so podani kot napotek
v dodatku F. Vodniki za obstoječe ali uveljavljene izvedbe nadzemnih vodov, kakor tudi dimenzije in načini
sukanja, ki niso vsebovani v tem standardu, so lahko zasnovani in dobavljeni po sporazumu med
proizvajalcem in kupcem, pri tem pa morajo biti upoštevane zahteve tega standarda.

5.3 Stanje površine

aluminium. Homogeneous aluminium clad steel conductors are designated yzSA where y
represents the type of steel (Grade A or B, applicable to class 20SA only), and z represents
the class of aluminium cladding (20, 27, 30 or 40).
4.3 Composite aluminium/zinc coated steel conductors are designated ALx/STyz, where
ALx identifies the external aluminium wires (envelope), and STyz identifies the steel core. In
the designation of zinc coated steel wires, y represents the type of steel (Grades 1 to 6) and z
represents the class of zinc coating (A to E).
4.4 Composite aluminium/aluminium-clad steel conductors are designated ALx/yzSA,
where ALx identifies the external aluminium wires (envelope), and yzSA identifies the steel
core as in 4.2.
4.5 Conductors are identified as follows:
(a) a code number giving the nominal area, rounded to an integer, of the aluminium or steel
as appropriate;
(b) a designation identifying the type of wires constituting the conductor. For composite
conductors the first description applies to the envelope and the second to the core.

The stranded conductor shall be made from wires and with grease, whenever greased
conductor is specified, as defined in clause 1.
5.2 Conductor sizes
Lists of conductor sizes in frequent use in some of the member countries are given as
guidance in annex F. Conductors for existing or established designs of overhead lines as well
as sizes and strandings not included in this standard may be designed and supplied as agreed
upon by the manufacturer and purchaser, and the relevant requirements of this standard shall
apply.
5.3 Surface condition
The surface of the conductor shall be free from all imperfections visible to the unaided eye
(normal corrective lenses accepted), such as nicks, indentations, etc., not consistent with good
commercial practice.
5.4 Conductor diameter
The conductor diameter shall not vary from the nominal value, specified by the purchaser, by
more than:
± 1 % for diameters larger or equal to 10 mm.
± 0,1 mm for diameters smaller than 10 mm.
5.5 Stranding
5.5.1 All wires of the conductor shall be concentrically stranded.
5.5.2 Adjacent wire layers shall be stranded with reverse lay directions. The direction of lay
of the external layer shall be right hand except when otherwise specified by the purchaser.

- 7 - EN 50182:2001
5.5.3 The wires in each layer shall be evenly and closely stranded around the underlying wire
or wires.
5.5.4 The lay ratios for the zinc coated or aluminium-clad steel wire layers shall be as given
in Table 1.

For zinc coated or aluminium-clad steel core constructions exceeding 37 wires, the lay ratio of the
outer layer shall lie between 14 and 18, and the lay ratio of the inner layers shall lie between 16
and 26.
5.5.5 The lay ratios for the aluminium layers of all types of conductor shall be as given in
Table 2.

5.5.6 In a multi-layer conductor, the lay ratio of any layer shall be equal to or less than the
lay ratio of the layer immediately beneath it.
5.5.7 All steel wires shall lie naturally in their position in the stranded core, and where the
core is cut, the wire ends shall remain in position or be readily replaced by hand and then
remain approximately in position. This requirement also applies to the aluminium wires of a
conductor.
5.5.8 Before stranding, aluminium and steel wires shall have approximately equal
temperatures.
5.5.9 The conductor shall have the ability to be installed, using the purchaser's
recommended installation method, without damage to the conductor. If required, this shall be
demonstrated according to 6.4.9.
5.6 Joints
5.6.1 For conductors containing only one steel wire there shall be no joints made after heat
treatment of the wire or rod. There shall be no joints of any kind made in the finished zinc
coated or aluminium-clad steel core wire or wires during stranding.
5.6.2 No more than one jointed aluminium finished wire before stranding, as permitted in the
relevant standard given in clause 2, shall be used per length of conductor.
5.6.3 During stranding, no aluminium wire welds shall be made for the purpose of achieving
the required conductor length.

5.6.4 Joints are permitted in aluminium wires unavoidably broken during stranding, provided
such breaks are not associated with either inherently defective wire or with the use of short
lengths of aluminium wires. Joints shall conform to the geometry of the original wire, i.e. joints
shall be dressed smoothly with a diameter equal to that of the parent wires and shall not be
kinked.
The number of joints in aluminium wires shall not exceed those specified in Table 3. These
joints shall not be closer than 15 m from a joint in the same wire or in any other aluminium
wire of the completed conductor.
Joints shall be made by electric butt welding, cold pressure welding or other methods approved
by the purchaser. The first type of joint shall be electrically annealed for approximately 250
mm on both sides of the weld.
5.6.5 While the joints specified in 5.6.4 are not required to meet the requirements of
unjoint
