Duplex Service Drop Cable
The Duplex Service Drop Cable is a reliable overhead cable for secondary power distribution from the utility pole to the service entrance. Featuring two insulated phase conductors (aluminum or ACSR) twisted around a bare or covered neutral messenger wire, it offers excellent mechanical strength and weather resistance. Insulation options include XLPE, PE, or PVC for superior UV, moisture, and abrasion protection. Compliant with ASTM B-230, B-231, ICEA S-76-474, and ANSI/ICEA standards, this cable supports low-voltage applications up to 600V. Ideal for residential, commercial, and rural electrification projects requiring safe, cost-effective aerial service connections worldwide.
