Southwire's parallel aerial cable meets or exceeds the following ASTM specifications:
Conductors are concentrically stranded, compressed 1350-H19 aluminum, insulated with either high density polyethylene or crosslinked polyethylene (XLP). Neutral messengers are either 6201 aluminum alloy or ACSR. Binder wires are 1350-H19 aluminum alloy, AWG 10 covered with high density polyethylene. The phase conductors are paralleled with the neutral messenger, and bound together with the binder wire. Four conductor cables incorporate phase identification with ridges for phase identification (one conductor one ridge, one conductor two ridges, one conductor plain).
