The top aluminium conductor manufacturers in India

Aluminium Conductors are engineered from electrolytic aluminium with a purity of 99.5% of aluminium. They are made from aluminium wire rod, the raw material or the primary form of the metal. Due to corrosion resistance features, high tensile strength and shock proof, these aluminium conductors are used extensively in overhead line applications. They are also used in power distribution for the same qualities.  The entire assortment of conductors is extensively used in urban areas and all these conductors are made up of more than one strands of aluminium wire as per requirements on the end usage.

Different types of aluminium conductors are:

1. All Aluminum Conductors (AAC)
2. All Alloy Aluminum Conductors (AAAC)
3. All Alloy Aluminum Conductor Steel Reinforced (AACSR)
4. Aluminum Conductors Alloy Reinforced (ACAR)
5. Aluminum Conductor Steel Reinforced (ACSR)

India has some of the largest producers of Aluminium Conductors due to its growing demand in the construction, infrastructure and power sector. We are listing the current top few aluminium conductor manufacturers from India below. The listing is random and not in order of importance.

1. Apar Industries Ltd

Apar Industries Ltd. headquartered in Mumbai, India is one of the largest producers of Aluminium Conductors in the world, with production facilities spread across Rabale(Maharashtra) , Silvassa and Athola (Dadra Nagar Haveli), Khatalwad and Umbergaon (Gujarat).

Apar's Conductor division, started in 1958 with the technical support from Alan (Canada) and Properzi (Italy) is the largest producers of POWERLINE Aluminum and Alloy Conductors in Asia, with strategic partnership with top EPC contractors in the world. The aluminium conductor division manufactures all type of bare overhead aluminium conductors and GS earth wires. It also manufacturs new generation conductors called High Temperature Low Sag (HTLS) with product approvals from Power Grid Corporation of India Limited.

Aluminium alloy rod and conductors were developed first in India by Apar through its own R&D initiatives. Factors that made Apar the lowest – cost producer of aluminium conductors in the world include higher installed capacity, strategic location of manufacturing , tax jurisdictions, backward integration and increased productivity. Apar’s backward integration enables it to make complete range of aluminium conductors by altering chemical properties at the alloying stage and tailoring products to match customer needs.
