Copper has high electrical conductivity and heat resistance and is often used to make electrical wires. In fact, most wires are made of copper. Having said that, not all wires are made of solid copper. There are solid copper wire and copper-clad aluminum wire. Copper-clad aluminum wire is characteri... read more
The wire used for winding in electrical equipment is called magnet wire (sometimes also called motor wire or winding wire). Simply put, magnet wires are used to exchange electrical energy with magnetic energy. The most common magnet wire is the copper insulated wire used in electric motors, one of t... read more
Enameled copper wire offers many advantages to appliances. Enamelled aluminum wire, also known as enameled wire, basically refers to aluminum or copper wire that has been coated. This thin insulating layer makes it useful for making transformers, motors, inductors, hard drives, speakers, electromagn... read more
Copper-clad aluminum wire is made of solid aluminum core wrapped with copper skin to improve its performance in the field. The copper-clad aluminum wire consists of a solid aluminum core covered with a thin copper cladding. About 10% of the conductor cross-sectional area is copper clad, and the thic... read more
Magnet wire is an insulated copper or aluminum conductor used to wrap around motors, transformers, generators, and any other electrical equipment that converts electrical energy into mechanical energy. The insulating layer can be a varnish (enamel) film or some type of cover layer such as polyester ... read more
