Copper\u00a0is the electrical\u00a0conductor\u00a0in many categories of electrical\u00a0wiring.\u00a0Copper wire\u00a0is\u00a0used in\u00a0power generation, power transmission, power distribution, telecommunications, electronics circuitry, and countless types of electrical equipment.\u00a0Copper\u00a0and its alloys are also\u00a0used to make\u00a0electrical contacts.<\/p>\n
Some History\u2026<\/p>\n
The benefits of using copper conducting wire were known, but the technology was not available to make a copper wire strong enough for an overhead wire. Then in 1877\u00a0Thomas Doolittle\u00a0developed the process for hard drawn copper wire in the Naugatuck Valley of Connecticut.<\/p>\n
In a high competitive market the development of new applications, price pressure and increase of product quality led wire manufacturers ask\u00a0increased characteristics without losing conductivity.\u00a0This led rod suppliers\u00a0develop new copper and aluminium alloys.\u00a0For example, copper alloys, such as CuSn, CuMg and CuAg, have been developed for automotive cable; High Temperature Aluminium Alloys have been developed for overhead conductor lines with round and shaped wires.<\/p>\n
Rod production technology and equipment depend on the rod production range and on the required output. The most diffused technologies are the\u00a0Continuous Casting Rolling technology\u00a0(CCR) and the\u00a0Upward Vertical Continuous Casting technology\u00a0(UVCC). The continuous development of these technologies resulted in high quality rods in terms of chemical composition, mechanical and electrical properties, less impurities and lower overall processing costs.<\/p>\n

Want to Know more about Copper Rod?<\/p>\n
A wide range of products has its starting point in a\u00a0rod of copper, aluminium and relevant alloys. Rods are the raw material for\u00a0electrical applications\u00a0such as electrical cables (i.e. power transmission, building, control and instrumentation, data and communication, automotive etc.), contact wire, magnet wire, pins and connectors; mechanical applications such as welding wire, wire for meshes and fastener. Other applications are\u00a0textile wire,\u00a0wirefor\u00a0food\u00a0industry\u00a0and\u00a0jewellery.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
