Aerial Bundle Cable, known as ABC cable is a very good option for overhead power distribution compared to the conventional bare conductor overhead cable.
Aerial Bundle Cables, normally referred to as Aerial Bundled Conductors or ABC, with 0.6/1kv, are called for combining multiple single-core cables together. ABC cable is widely used in temporary power distribution to street lighting and secondary pole-pole service cables. ABC wires feature light-stranded aluminum conductors, both single-core and multi-core, covered with XLPE/PE/PVC insulation. They are more commonly used in temporary power installations such as an on-base buildings. ABC cables are often referred to as bare conductors As insulated cables. These ABC cables are installed and separated by air gaps but where sparks and shorts in the event of high winds may cause resulting bushfires in dry climates or risk nearby property.
