Revision Standard - Superseded.
Superseded by 635-2003. This standard outlines requirements and establishes design guidelines for the selection of aluminum sheaths for extra-high, high, medium-, and low-voltage cables. It establishes basic installation parameters for aluminum-sheathed cables. It also provides references to industry standards and codes incorporating design and installation requirements of aluminum-sheathed cables.

This guide covers power cables incorporating aluminum sheaths, except those of the SF6 rigid-bus type.
The purpose of this guide is as follows:1) Outline requirements and establish design guidelines for the selection of aluminum sheaths for extra-high, high-, medium-, and low-voltage cables.; 2) Establish basic installation parameters for aluminum-sheathed cables.Provide references to industry standards and codes incorporating design and installation requirements of aluminum-sheathed cables.; 3) Provide a comprehensive bibliography of literature related to the subject.
