They shall also withstand power arcs, chaffing and abrasions from clamps and localised heating effect due to magnetic power losses from clamps as well as copper losses of the conductor covered inside the ‘armour rod and clamps. Preformed Armour ods are used as a set composed of 10 or more aluminium cylindrical rods having diameter and length proportional to the conductor diameter. Each rod is preformed in helical shape and has parrot-bil end finish. The preformed armour rods are made of aluminium alloy HE-20 or 85032 as per IS : 739-1977 or 6081-T 91 as por Aluminium Association of USA Specification. The aluminium alloy used should be properly heat treated during ‘manufacturing process. RIGHT HAND HEU CENTRE MARK Feedback Fig. 154 TABLE 1541 Dimensions in mm. ‘Approx 'SI.No. Code Name Nos.
