Anotation

This specification covers 800 series aluminum alloys fabricated into round wires in annealed or intermediate tempers suitable for stranding into conductors or for solid single conductors, usually to be insulated. The wire shall be made from drawing stock meeting the chemical composition limits for aluminum, silicon, iron, copper, magnesium, zinc, and boron. The wire shall be free of imperfections and shall conform to specified values for tensile strength, elongation, and electrical resistivity. The specified values for the density of aluminum alloys and wire diameter, shall be taken for the calculation of mass and cross sections. Joints may be made in drawing stock and in the wire prior to final drawing, or during final drawing or in the finished wire by electrical-butt welding, cold-pressure welding, or by electric-butt, cold-upset welding. Details for each kind of test and measurement method (tensile strength test, resistivity measurement, diameter measurement, surface-finish inspection) are discussed thoroughly.
