Copper Wire – An Ideal Wire for Electrical Use

Copper is a chemical element with the symbol Cu and atomic number 29. Copper is a ductile metal and it is a very good conductor of heat and electricity. Although copper has various uses like its use as a conductor of heat and electricity, a building material, industrial use, use as a constituent of various metal alloys, etc., but its most popular and prevalent use is in the electrical industry for making copper wires.

Copper is considered an ideal element for making electrical wires and also used in most of the electrical equipment. The purer the copper is the more suitable it is for making electrical wires. The primary reasons of copper being used for making electrical wires are that copper is a very good conductor of electricity; it is very ductile and can be easily drawn into wires; copper is rust proof; copper wires are quite robust and last long; also, copper is not a very expensive metal to make wires.

There are numerous varieties of copper wires that are used for various electrical applications at present. Some popular varieties of these wires include tin coated copper wire, copper braided wire, enameled copper wire, tinned copper wire, stranded copper wire, copper earthing wire, etc.
