It is preferred to use of service drop (ABC cables) instead of uninsulated conductors at low voltage networks. service drop (ABC cables)are especially used at areas where the cost of underground networks is expensive and also for electrification of rural areas like villages. 

Technical Data
Maximum operating temperature 90 degree
Maximum short-circuit temperature 250 degree. Service drop( ABC cables) are especially used at areas where the cost of underground networks is expensive and also for electrification of rural areas like villages. 

To supply 120 volt aerial service for temporary service at construction sites,as a Service Drop (power pole to service entrance), as a secondary cable (pole to pole) or street lighting. For service at 600 volts or lower at a maximum conductor temperature of 75ºC for Polyethylene insulated cables or 90ºC for Cross-Linked (XLPE) insulation.
