Conclusion<\/h2><p>Aging aluminum conductors need not mean premature replacement. Through targeted diagnostics, in-service annealing, corrosion barriers, composite-core upgrades, and predictive maintenance, utilities can safely extend conductor life by decades. These methods deliver both technical reliability and economic benefit. As grids evolve to handle higher loads and renewable integration, life-extension strategies will remain a key tool for asset optimization.<\/p><hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/><h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">7.
