Bare copper wire is, as its name implies, copper wire that has not been coated. The conductive qualities of bare copper are unparalleled, and it may be produced in hard, medium-hard, or soft annealed tempers. Grounding wire is another name for bare wire. Depending on the needs of the application, bare conductors are available in stranded, braided, or solid (single-end) constructions.
Benefits Of Bare Copper Wire
Only silver performs better than copper as an electrical conductor. These are a few other advantages of using bare copper wires:
- High strength
- Long-term durability
- High thermal conductivity
- Good ductility and malleability
- Creep resistance
- High melting point
- Good solderability
- Resistance to damage while handling a large amount of electricity
Bare Copper Wire Applications
The following uses, which also include dry environments, are best suited for bare copper wire:
- Grounding electrical systems
- Electrical transmission
- Electrical hookups
- Jumpers
- Electrical appliances
