Abstract
The corrosion conditions of in-service aluminum conductor steel reinforced (ACSR) overhead lines in typical climate were studied by using macroscopic and microscopic methods. According to its operating environment, the corrosion causes were also analyzed. It is found that the corrosion of the outer aluminum stranded conductors is more serious than other parts. And partial corrosion pits have been found on the outer layers of aluminum stranded conductors. While there is no obvious corrosion appeared on the steel core matrix. Additionally, corrosion products can reduce the corrosion rate of aluminum stranded conductors but accelerate corrosion of the steel core. Through this research, more attention should be paid to monitor the aluminum stranded conductors.
