APPLICATIONS
Choose an application to see which requirements matter and where to start.
Evaluate the complete grounding conductor and connection system against the project duty. Start with the installation requirements, then confirm the CCS construction.
Read the guideCoaxial & CATV cableSpecify the CCS center conductor as part of the complete coaxial cable. Define geometry, operating conditions and the cable performance you need to verify.
Read the guideRail & infrastructureReview copper-clad steel against the operator’s connection design and service conditions. The required wire or stranded construction follows the project specification.
Read the guideTracer wire systemsA tracer wire provides a conductive route that can be located alongside a non-metallic utility. Evaluate the conductor together with its insulation, connections and the locating system.
Read the guideTelecommunicationsDefine what the conductor does in the cable before selecting its material. Signal behavior, DC duty and mechanical requirements are separate review inputs.
Read the guideTelephone and drop cablesStart with the actual cable drawing and conductor function. A CCS designation alone does not define a telephone or drop cable.
Read the guideAutomotive conductor projectsA proposed conductor must be evaluated in its exact cable or component role and against the customer's qualification requirements.
Read the guideRenewable-energy infrastructureUse the conductor's actual role to define the review. Grounding, cable conductors and photovoltaic module interconnection are different material tasks.
Read the guideComponent conductor projectsDefine the wire or conductor's exact role in the component, then evaluate the material and processing route against the finished-product requirements.
Read the guideGROUNDING & BONDING
CCS stranded conductors can be evaluated for grounding and bonding projects. Begin with electrical duty, installation environment and the complete connection system.
CABLE MANUFACTURING
Evaluate CCS, CCA and CCAA against finished cable requirements. Review drawing, stranding, surface condition and terminations as part of the material selection.
RAIL & INFRASTRUCTURE
Infrastructure projects bring specific mechanical, electrical and environmental requirements. Define the conductor and connection system against the actual project specification.
TELECOMMUNICATIONS
CCS appears in General Clad’s published telecommunications range. Select the conductor with the cable geometry, intended frequency range and finished-cable performance in mind.
