acsr means all alluminum steel reinforced , it means it has a steel conductor inside for reinforcing just as animals has backbone , so names of the animals & birds names with backbone are used for ASCR.
AAC, All alluminum cable , the names of insects used
The ACSR conductor is named after an animal due to the shape of animals feet
Single Circuit PantherACSR Conductor
The Bersimis ACSR Conductor have the Current Carrying Capacity 1359.6A. It is rated at stranding (Alluminium/Steel) 42/7 and Resistance DC 20 degree Celcius per 1000ft. 0.013Ω.

"Dog" is the code name for a specific type of conductor ACSR conductor - 14.2mm in diameter with 7 small (1.57mm) strands of steel and 6 large strands (4.27mm) of aluminium, and can carry up to 455A of power. ACSR conductors are named after animals, with the larger/smaller the animal, the large/smaller the conductor is - a Dog conductor is larger than a Mole conductor, but smaller than a Zebra conductor.

Single Circuit PantherACSR Conductor
ACSR stands for aluminum conductor, steel reinforced. This type of conductor is used for transmission lines that are strung between poles or towers. The aluminum is used for its lower resistance, and the steel provides the structural strength.

the main purpose of steel in acsr conductors is for mechanical strength
Current Carrying Capacity of ACSR DOG Conductor 300 Amp Er. Anil Prajapati
There are lots of choices for type of conductor - ACSR is a very common one. In my experience aluminum is the most often used metal. ACSR uses aluminum to carry the current, and also has a steel core that provides added strength.
Steel is used to provide the aluminium conductor with tensile strength necessary for suspension between poles or towers.
That's what they say so it is!
