Bare copper wires

Engineering diversity achieved using Bare Copper
Wires

Copper wire is the most popular metal element
used in electrical circuits as well as
electronics industry. Being good conductor of
electricity as well as heat, copper is used
abundantly in appliances and wirings. Copper
finds wide scale utility in aerospace industry
and transistors owing to great flexibility and
ability to be drawn into thin wires. Usually
copper wires come coated in alloy of tin and
nickel. Insulated copper wires have cadmium and
tin in their composition that makes it resistant
against corrosion and more flexible to industrial
applications. When the wires are manufactured
without the tin coating or alloy coating, the
category of wires is called bare copper wire.
Here is a highlight on a few characteristic
properties that make these wires find entry into
abundant applications of engineering and science.

Bare copper wires are made of hundred percent
copper with zero impurity. It allows higher
conductivity and greater flexibility. This allows
it to be drawn in complex shapes of wire and
cable. These are classified under following
categories
Hard drawn bare wires Medium hard bare
wires Annealed bare wires Bare strands wound over
Concentric layout Tinned conductors Uni-lay
stranded annealed wires

Glorious applications of Copper Wires
The copper wires laid bare find their
applications in vastly distinct industrial
segments. They are used in overhead transmissions
and lighting solutions. In addition to them,
common applications include use in street
lighting and heavy transmission lines. They are
also used in mines and industrial overhead cranes
owing to their standard tolerance and high
conductivity. Copper wires in bare mode are used
in touch conduits.

Bare copper wires continue to be used in circuits
of telegraph industry and Morse coding. Since
they have good signal conditioning against
interference, they are also used in signal
grounding cables.Copper retains its elemental
properties and characteristics even when
submerged under mediums other than air, like oil,
hot fluid or salt water, they are used in
submersible motors, bus bars and transformers.

Reduction of CO2 Emissions and Energy loss
Electrical appliances like washing machines,
television, music players, microwave ovens and
computers are packed with complex circuits made
of bare copper.Since these units are prone to
fluctuating voltage and lightning incidents, bare
copper offers excellent grounding and signal
conditioning. Copper provides high energy
efficiency reporting minimum loss due to heat
dissipation and loss of electrical charge. It is
reported that each tonne of copper used in
industry cuts down carbon dioxideemission by two
hundred tonnes per year.
