The invention belongs to the technical field of 
electric power, and particularly relates to a manufacturing method of multi-purpose 
zinc clad steel. The manufacturing method comprises the following steps that chemical-free environment-friendly treatment is performed on the surfaces of steel wires; 
surface cleaning treatment is performed on the steel wires by the aid of a belt 
sander; the cleaned steel wires are heated by an intermediate-frequency furnace, then the steel wires and two 
zinc rods enter a continuous cladding 
machine simultaneously for extruding, the 
zinc clad steel is obtained, the 
heating temperature of the intermediate-frequency furnace is controlled to range from 200 DEG C to 250 DEG C, an extruding mold and a guiding mold are assembled on the cladding 
machine according tothe product requirements, the nasal fossa sizes for mold 
assembly are controlled to range from 3 mm to 6 mm according to the diameters of the steel wires, the mold cavity temperatures are controlled to range from 150 DEG C to 250 DEG C, the rotating speed of an extruding wheel is controlled to range from 3 rpm to 7 rpm, and the extruding speed is controlled to range from 70 m / min to 120 m / min; andcomposite 
metal drawing is performed on zinc clad steel busbars after cladding. According to the method, the whole production process is free of 
chemical pollution, the method is different from all existing zinc clad steel technologies, and flexible production is realized.
