ADSS cable is loose tube stranded. Fibers are positioned into a loose tube made of high modulus plastics. The tubes are filled with a water-resistant filling compound. The tubes (and fillers) are stranded around FRP (Fiber Reinforced Plastic) as a non-metallic central strength member into a compact and circular cable core. After the cable core is filled with filling compound, it is covered with a thin polyethylene (PE) inner sheath. After two layers of Aramid yarns are applied in two directions over the inner sheath as strength member, the cable is completed with PE or AT (anti-tacking) outer sheath.
Characteristic
Can be installed without shutting off the power Excellent AT performance. The maximum inductive at the operation point of AT sheath can reach 25KV Light weight and small diameter reducing the load caused by ice and wind and the load on towers and backprops Large span lengths and the largest span is over 1000m Accurate control on Aramid application greatly improving the strength of cables Accurate fiber excess length and stranding pitch to ensure the good performance of tensile strength and temperature The design life span is over 30 years
Application The actual status of overhead power lines is taken into full consideration when ADSS cable is being designed. For overhead power lines under 110KV, PE outer sheath is applied. For power lines equal to or over 110KV, AT outer sheath is applied. The dedicate design of Aramid quantity and stranding process can satisfy the demand on various spans.

Extension Link Double-layer Heliformed Tension Set Anchor Shackle Dead-end Rods
General information: Tension Sets are intended for connecting ADSS cable and poles. Aluminium claded Steel wires can protect and provide cushioning to the ADSS cable. The special design of heliformed rods makes ensure that Tension Sets can not cause undue stress to the ADSS cable. As a result, the normal lifetime of cable system is ensured. Structure and Material: Tension Set Outer-layer--- Stainless steel pressing. Anchor Shackle--Hot dipped galvanized steel Anchor Shackle is connected with Reinforcing Pole units. Tensile Strength: U-7: 69kN, U-10:98kN, U-12:118kN, U-16:157kN. Plastic Inner---- It is made of anti-aging, anti-ultraviolet and corrosion-resisting plastic. Dead-end Rods--Rods are factory assembled into one subset with a layer of firm emery inside, in order to increase gripping power of Tension Sets while decreasing side pressure. Sets are color marked to reduce misalignment errors and to speed installation. Casing Ring----- It is extended of stainless steel plugging in shackle of Strain Clamp for protection. Extension Link: Hot dipped galvanized steel Extension Link is intended for connecting Anchor Shackle and Clevis Thimble and avoiding Strain Clamp exit close to poles. It is sure that the cable has enough winding radius. Tensile Strength: 40kN, 70kN,

100kN, 120kN and160kN. Clevis Thimble---Hot galvanized cast steel Clevis Thimble is plugged in shackle of Strain Clamp for protection and connection with Extension Link. Tensile Strength: 40kN,70kN,100kN,120kN and160kN. Armor Rods----- Armor Rods are made of aluminum claded steel wire. Armor Rods with a layer of particle emery inside increase friction and decrease side pressure to cables. Rods are factory assembled into four subsets which reduce misalignment errors and speeds installation. The ends are bent outward to provide stress relief at the critical cable departure areas.
General information: The Suspension Sets are designed to reduce static stress at the support point of ADSS cable, as well as ensure that the cable is cushioned against the dynamic stress of aeolian vibration. The combination of the HSU and Armor Rods provides protection against cable bending stress, there is no other stress concentration, so that the fiber optic doesnt produce extra loss in the cable. Structure and Material: Housing------It is made of cast aluminium alloy, which is stable, better anticorrosive in areo and mechanical performance. Rubber Insert------It consists of high-class rubber, compounded for resistance to ozone, wheathering extreme high and low temperature variations and compression set. Bolt, Nut, Split Washer, Lock Pin------Hot dipped galvanized. Closed Washer------Electric power standards Anchor Shackle------Electric power standards

Armor Rods ------High strength aluminium alloy for wheathering extreme high and low temperature variations, compression set, water resistance and high hardness. HSU Rods------the same to Armor Rods

Metal Splice Closure is designed for splicing ADSS Cables, the normal cables and the connection between ADSS Cable and the normal cable, including two to four sleeves for input and output continuing. The sleeve quantity is decided on the requirement. The special design of stainless band, fixed unit and strengthening core makes cable more steady, cable storage wider to speed storing and cable bending radius enough big, avoiding fiber optic extra loss and ensuring transmission performance. The double sealed designs make Splice Closure more reliable, easy to install and fix.
