Copperweld ArcAngel

/

ArcAngel is an IEEE-compliant CCS grounding conductor for substation grounding applications where electrical performance is critical, and flexibility is needed while still offering all the benefits of Century products.

  • Product range: AWG #6 – 500 kcmil (MCM)

  • Short circuit performance (kA) @ 500 ms: 14 / 28 / 44 / 52 / 73 / 101

  • Voltage range: 1 kV (Medium) – 800 kV (High)

  • Construction: 7, 19 or 61 strands of CCS

ArcAngel is designed to replace traditional copper grounding applications with a more flexible version of Copper-Clad Steel (CCS). Thanks to its higher strand count, ArcAngel offers increased mechanical strength. For instance, a 2/0-sized ArcAngel has a higher break load than a common 4/0 copper conductor. This gives substation design engineers new options to explore in software modelling tools like CDEGS v18, allowing for optimizing the cost of a substation ground grid.

ArcAngel CCS is:

  • A newly designed variation on the classic CCS.

  • Used for larger diameter bare copper replacement and installation in substation or higher fault current applications.

  • Designed to replace common sizes of copper used in grounding applications with a more flexible version of traditional CCS.

  • As an added advantage of the higher strand count, ArcAngel provides greater mechanical strength. 2/0-sized ArcAngel has a higher break load than a common 4/0 copper conductor, which provides substation design engineers with new options to explore in software modelling tools.

  • Available with or without Fault ID – an indicator strand (green) that changes colour when experiencing a fault. CCS wire with Fault ID indicator is always manufactured with tin plating.
