1.1 This specification covers round, aluminum-clad steel core wire with two designations of tensile strengths, AW2 (Normal Strength) and AW3 (High Strength).

1.2 The values stated in either SI units or inch-pound units are to be regarded separately as standard. The values stated in each system may not be exact equivalents; therefore, each system shall be used independently of the other. Combining values from the two systems may result in non-conformance with the standard.

1.2.1 For conductor sizes designated by AWG, the requirements in SI units have been numerically converted from corresponding values stated or derived in inch-pound units. For conductor sizes designated by SI units only, the requirements are stated or derived in SI units.


This specification covers round, aluminum-clad steel core wire used for mechanical reinforcement in the manufacture of aluminum conductors, aluminum-clad steel reinforced. The base metal shall be steel produced by the openhearth, electric-furnace, or basic-oxygen process and shall be of such composition that the finished clad wire shall have the properties and characteristics prescribed in this specification. The aluminum used for cladding shall have a purity and quantity sufficient to meet thickness and resistance requirements of this specification. The material shall conform to the required tensile properties such as stress, tensile strength, and elongation. The aluminum-clad steel core shall undergo elongation test, tension test, and torsion test. The elongation test shall be determined by an extensometer equipped with a vernier or other instrument reading. In the torsion test, a small tensile load shall be applied to the specimen during testing. The specimen shall be twisted by rotating one of the vises in the same direction until fracture occurs.
