Hard Drawn Copper
Hard Drawn Copper
The above wires consist of several twisted copper wires that are without sheath (bare).
These wires do not have annealing properties, which makes them stronger than soft drawn (annealed) copper wires.
The most common use of this type of wire is for the home power distribution network, which due to the increasing use of aerial bundled cable, the consumption of aerial hard copper wires is limited.
Due to the similar structure of this type of conductors with earting conductors, you should pay attention to its structure and features when buying.
The standard used to produce these conductors is BS 7884.
The technical specifications of hard aerial copper conductors are as follows:
