Aluminium AAAC cable
6101-T81 / 6201. All-Aluminium Alloy Conductor
Cable manufacturers sell by kilometre but hedge by MT. And the MT/KM changes with cross-section. The catalog stores a typical for medium sizes (0.42 MT/KM for 100–240 mm²) and each SKU can override at position entry with its datasheet value. No more per-shipment spreadsheet conversion.
This page shows how the NovaEx wizard models one common configuration. Your contract may look different. Override any field per shipment, or clone the example to build your own.

80 KM of medium-section AAAC cable × 0.42 MT/KM = 33.6 MT Al hedgeable → hedge on LME Aluminium. Per-section values vary widely (50 mm² = 0.14 MT/KM, 240 mm² = 0.67 MT/KM).
