Aerial Bunched Cables, Conductor Stranding : Multistranded

Aerial Bunched Cable (ABC) Is A Very Novel Concept For Overhead Power Distribution. ABC Provides Higher Safety And Reliability Compared To Bare Conductor Overhead Distribution System. The Other Advanctages Are Lower Power Losses And System Economy By Reducing Installation, Maintenance And Operation Cost. This System Is Ideal For Rural Distribution And Specially Suitable In Difficult Terrains Like Hilly Areas, Forest And Coastal Areas Etc.

ABC Is Also Considered As A Better Choice For Power Distribution In Densely Populated Areas Where Laying Of Underground Cable Is Either Difficult Or Extremely Expensive. This Is Attributed By Narrow Lanes And By-lanes Of Congested Urban Areas. Needless To Mention That ABC Is A Better Choice Due To The Flexibility Of Re-routing Demand, Should There Be Any Changes In Urban Development Plan.
