Classes1 AA and A are used primarily for overhead transmission and primary and secondary distribution, where ampacity
must be maintained and a lighter conductor (compared to ACSR) is desired, and when conductor strength is not a critical
factor. Classes B and C are used primarily as bus, apparatus connectors and jumpers, where additional flexibility is required.
1Classes refer to stranding and are an indication of relative conductor flexibility, AA being the least flexible, C the most flexible.
