Last updated: August 2026 dataAluminum conductor steel-reinforced (ACSR) cable — stranded wire, cables, and plaited bands of aluminum with a steel core, not electrically insulated — is a primary transmission conductor for high-voltage overhead power lines. The US schedule separates bare, unfitted lengths (7614101000) from cable fitted with fittings or made into finished articles (7614105000), a distinction that affects both classification and end-use documentation. India leads US supply under this heading, with Mexico and Bahrain also significant sources; imports are subject to Section 232 tariff measures on aluminum content.

Under the US schedule, 7614101000 covers ACSR cable supplied as bare, continuous lengths without end fittings and not made into finished articles, while 7614105000 covers cable that has been fitted with connectors, terminations, or otherwise made into a finished assembly. This distinction matters because fitted cable may also be examined for classification under Chapter 85 electrical equipment headings if it functions as a complete electrical component rather than a raw conductor.
Bahrain hosts Alba (Aluminium Bahrain), one of the world's largest aluminum smelters, giving the country a cost-competitive base for downstream aluminum wire and cable production. Its presence among top suppliers reflects the broader pattern of Gulf-region aluminum producers moving into semi-fabricated products. Importers should note that Section 232 treatment applies regardless of the processing country, and origin rules must be carefully assessed when aluminum is smelted in one country and drawn or stranded in another.
