Connecting Conductors to Aerial Transmission Towers
The Challenge:
Time is money and you need to find a fast, easy and reliable way to connect conductors to transmission towers.
The AFL Telecommunications Solution:
Our tower-to-conductor package makes connection a breeze. From the best compression accessories on the market to comprehensive services and technical support, our ACA Conductor Accessories division has what it takes to bring high performance and reliability to your network.

ACA's complete line of Compression Accessories includes the most aggressively designed products used in today's electric transmission networks. Because of their unique “squeeze” design, they are incredibly fast and easy to install and are designed to operate, regardless of the electrical load, at a temperature lower than that of the conductor.

Our Quick Compress™ accessories provide the benefit of a 40 percent reduction in field installation time without sacrificing reliability. Using a single line to connect a series of conductors, these alloy compression accessories eliminate the need for separate compression accessories. Dead ends, joint assemblies, jumper connectors and terminal connectors are pre-filled. This eliminates errors associated with field filling and helps insure the proper amount of compound is placed in the connector.

Hi-Temp™ compression accessories are specially designed for ACSS and ACSS/TW conductors. They are designed to hold the conductor in place while not overheating from the increased temperatures.

A user-friendly enhancement of AFL's original SAG10® program, incorporates more than 75 years of experience and data gathering in sag and tension calculations. The program features an extensive conductor database including optical ground wire and ADSS, sag and tension with creep, elevated temperature creep, automated stress-strain chart selection, built-in temperature and loadings, and more.
