Abstract

The invention relates to the field of electrical conductors of aluminum-based alloys. The invention comprises subjecting a wire rod of Al-Mg-Si alloy to continuous quenching, tepid drawing and continuous artificial aging. The invention makes it possible to produce wires and cables for overhead lines with mechanical and electrical characteristics substantially exceeding present standards.
