TS 9632 Standard Test for Aluminum-Magnesium-Silicon Alloy Wires-Air Line Conductors

EUROLAB, with its state-of-the-art accredited laboratories and expert team, offers precise and rapid testing services within the scope of TS 9632 test. This standard covers aluminium-magnesium-silicon alloy wires with diameters from 1.50 mm to 4.50 mm used in the manufacture of stranded conductors for overhead lines.

Aluminum-Magnesium-Silicon alloy wires (Al-Mg-Si) are a type of material used as overhead line conductors. These types of alloys are preferred because they are lightweight, durable and resistant to corrosion. Various tests can be performed to evaluate the usability of conductors for overhead lines and to ensure their reliability.

Here is some information on potential testing for these types of wires:

Mechanical Tests:

• Tensile Strength Test: The tensile strength test of Aluminum-Magnesium-Silicon wires is performed to evaluate how strong the wires are. This test is an important parameter in determining the mechanical strength of wires.
• Elastic Modulus Measurement: This test is used to evaluate the elastic behavior of wires. The modulus of elasticity indicates how the material responds to deformation.

Corrosion Resistance Tests:

• Salt Fog Resistance Test: This test is performed to evaluate the resistance of wires to corrosion. The wires are exposed to salt mist and their corrosion resistance levels are measured over a period of time.
• Electrochemical Monitoring (ECM) Test: This method evaluates corrosion behavior by measuring the electrochemical activity of wires.

Thermal Performance Tests:

• Thermal Expansion Test: The thermal expansion coefficients of Aluminum-Magnesium-Silicon wires are measured and their behavior under different temperature conditions is evaluated.
• Thermal Shock Test: Air lines can be exposed to various temperature changes. This test evaluates the wires' resistance to these thermal shocks.

Electrical Performance Tests:

• Conductivity Tests: Conduction performance is evaluated by measuring the electrical conductivity of the wires.
• Insulation Tests: The insulation properties of wires are checked through insulation resistance tests.

These tests are important to evaluate the performance of aluminum-magnesium-silicon alloy wires and ensure reliable transmission for overhead lines. Proper testing can help ensure the longevity and reliability of air lines by evaluating critical factors such as the material's durability, corrosion resistance and electrical properties.
