ADSS stands for?

• A. All dielectric Self Supporting
• B. All Dielectric Self Supporting System
• C. All Dielectric Self Shielding
• D. Aerial Dielectric Self Service

Answer: (A)

ADSS stands for All-Dielectric Self-Supporting. This describes an aerial fiber optic cable built entirely from insulating materials (no metal strength members) and designed to span between poles using its own strength, without needing separate guy wires. All-Dielectric means it won’t conduct electricity, which is crucial when run near power lines, and Self-Supporting means the cable can hold itself up between supports. The standard wording is All-Dielectric Self-Supporting (often with hyphens), which is why this option is the best fit. The other phrases change the meaning—System suggests a broader package, Shielding implies shielding material, and Service implies help rather than the cable type itself.
