ABC systems are used for transmitting electricity in city power grids. They operate at voltages of up to 600/1000 volts and are primarily used for overhead single-phase and three-phase distribution of electricity, as well as other purposes. They can operate within a stable temperature range of -10°C to 80°C, and they are economical because of their good electrical properties and lower cost compared to copper cables. They are flexible, making them easy to install and use in various applications. ABC systems are safe to use as they prevent electric short circuits and potential fire risks. They are durable and can withstand exposure to UV radiation and moisture, and are also corrosion-resistant. Additionally, ABC systems have an aesthetically pleasing finish and can adapt to the physical properties and electrical requirements of the African market and environment.
