  2. Copper-clad aluminium wire - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Copper-clad_aluminium_wire

    The better conductor on the outer path causes the wire's resistance at high frequencies, where the skin effect is greater, to approach that of a pure copper wire. This improved conductivity over bare aluminum makes the copper-clad aluminium wire a good fit for radio frequency use. The skin effect is similarly exploited in copper-clad steel wire ...

  3. Aluminum building wiring - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aluminum_building_wiring

    Also, the size of the aluminum wire needs to be larger compared to copper wire used for the same circuit due to the increased resistance of the aluminum alloys. For example, a 15 A branch circuit supplying standard lighting fixtures can be installed with either #14 AWG copper building wire or #12 AWG aluminum building wire according to the NEC ...

  4. Electrical wiring - Wikipedia

    The sulfur in vulcanized rubber insulation attacked bare copper wire so the conductors were tinned to prevent this. The conductors reverted to being bare when rubber ceased to be used. Diagram of a simple electrical cable with three insulated conductors, with IEC colour scheme

  5. Power cable - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Power_cable

    Power cables use stranded copper or aluminum conductors, although small power cables may use solid conductors in sizes of up to 1/0. (For a detailed discussion on copper cables, see: Copper wire and cable.). The cable may include uninsulated conductors used for the circuit neutral or for ground (earth) connection.

  6. List of copper alloys - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_copper_alloys

    Example of a copper alloy object: a Neo-Sumerian foundation figure of Gudea, circa 2100 BC, made in the lost-wax cast method, overall: 17.5 x 4.5 x 7.3 cm, probably from modern-day Iraq, now in the Cleveland Museum of Art (Cleveland, Ohio, USA) Copper alloys are metal alloys that have copper as their principal component.

  7. Copper interconnects - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Copper_interconnects

    Copper interconnects are used in integrated circuits to reduce propagation delays and power consumption. Since copper is a better conductor than aluminium, ICs using copper for their interconnects can have interconnects with narrower dimensions, and use less energy to pass electricity through them. Together, these effects lead to ICs with ...
