Introduction to CTC Global

• CTC Global is located in Irvine, California, USA
  and began developing the patented ACCC conductor
  in 2002.
• They produced conductor that could be used to
  upgrade existing transmission corridors without
  structural modifications. They also focused to
  reduce thermal sag, increase spans between fewer
  structures, carry more current, reduce line
  losses and improve grid reliability.
• CTC Global went on to develop ISO certified
  manufacturing techniques and tooling to allow the
  cost-effective and continuous production of the
  pultruded composite core. To date, the ACCC
  conductor has been deployed to over 650 project
  sites, globally.
• CTC works with manufacturing and hardware
  partners worldwide to ensure high-quality and
  competitively priced products with the fastest
  possible delivery times and lowest possible
  shipping costs.

ACCC Conductor

• The CTC Global ACCC conductor utilizes a hybrid
  carbon and glass fiber core embedded in a
  high-performance thermoset epoxy matrix.
• The lighter weight allows the CTC Global ACCC
  conductor of any size to utilize 28 more
  aluminum without a weight or diameter penalty.
  The compact trapezoidal strands and smooth
  surface composite core work in unison to
  dissipate wind-induced vibration.
• The overall modulus of the CTC Global ACCC
  conductor core is lower than that of steel. The
  lower modulus allows the ACCC conductor to
  stretch degree during extreme ice and wind
  loading events.

ACCC AZR Conductor

• ACCC AZR Conductor uses either the standard 310
  ksi core or the higher strength 375 ksi core that
  is then wrapped with layers of a high strength,
  thermal resistant aluminum-zirconium alloy.
• The ACCC AZR conductor offers nearly the same
  efficiency, but far greater overall strength. The
  added strength and increased tensile modulus
  mitigates conductor sag under heavy wind or ice
  loads, or very long spans.

Composite Core Conductor

• CTC Globals ACCC composite core consists of
  high-strength carbon and glass fibers embedded in
  a toughened thermoset epoxy resin matrix.
• The ACCC conductors composite core offers a
  strength to weight ratio approximately six times
  better than steel, with a coefficient of thermal
  expansion about ten times lower.
• The composite core is also impervious to
  corrosion and cyclic load fatigue. CTC Global
  ACCC conductor cores are currently available in
  310 and 375 ksi tensile strengths.
