Duplex NS75 Service Drop Cable consists of one compact aluminum conductor insulated with Linear Low-Density Polyethylene (LLDPE), twisted around a bare compact ACSR stranded neutral conductor, which serves as a supporting neutral. NS75 Service Drop Cable is CSA Certified and meets the requirements of CSA C22.2 No. 129 and CAN/CSA C61089 standards, as applicable.

Three conductor cable with two aluminum phase conductors insulated with a low temperature, moisture resistant crosslinked polyethylene (XLPE) insulation that is formulated for a balance of flexibility and mechanical toughness, in a parallel assembly, a concentrically applied uninsulated neutral conductor, binder tape, and an overall PVC jacket.

Bare soft copper grounding conductors are solid or concentric-lay-stranded, consisting of one or more layers of wire wrapped helically around a straight round central wire. Each successive layer has six wires more than the layer immediately beneath. Greater flexibility is afforded by using Class B stranding. The direction of lay for the outer layer is left-hand lay. In multilayer constructions, the direction of lay for each successive layer is reversed. Copper ground wires are manufactured using annealed soft copper wire and are manufactured in accordance with the requirements of the latest applicable issues of the ASTM specifications B3 and B8.
-
Weatherproof line wire consists of single conductor covered with either Linear Low-Density Polyethylene (LLDPE) or Cross-linked Polyethylene (XLPE). Conductors may be compact or concentric strand of ACSR, A1 or A2 or solid, compact or concentric strand copper. Weatherproof line wire meets the requirements of CSA C68.9 and the ANSI/ICEA S-70-547 specification, as applicable.

Triplex NS75/NS90 Service Drop Cable is intended to deliver single phase power from the secondary overhead power line or polemounted transformer to the service entrance conductors at the user’s building or other structure. NS75/NS90 cable may also be used as pole line secondary with service splices at the pole (also refer to CEC rule 12-318). NS75/NS90 cable is rated for use on systems having nominal voltages of 600 V or less.
-
Cross-linked semi-conducting conductor shield, insulation and semi-conducting insulation shield are extruded over a solid or stranded aluminum or copper conductor and cured in a single operation. An uncoated copper tape (helically applied), polyester separator tape and extruded black PVC jacket are applied over the cable core.

Smooth Body ACSR is a composite compactlay- stranded conductor. The conductors are manufactured in accordance with the requirements of the latest applicable issues of CSA C49.2. The steel strands form the central core of the conductor, around which is stranded a layer of aluminum 1350-H19 wires. The sizes listed on the following pages are common examples used in overhead lines. Metric (mm2) sizes are also available. The Canadian Smooth Body ACSR conductors are supplied in various tensile strength configurations, designated as Type 100, Type 150, and Type 200. For each conductor gauge size, the regular product is known as Type 100. Type 150 designates a conductor design with the same AWG size, but with 150% the rated strength of the Type 100. Type 200 follows accordingly, with twice the rated strength of the Type 100.
