What copper used in rewinding transformers?

It is recommended to use enamelled copper wire min. 99,9 %.


Why copper is used in winding as it costly?

Copper is used for lots of reasons - strength, low resistitivy, good heat characteristics, etc. Transformers with aluminum windings don't stand up as well to through faults as transformers with copper windings.


What are some common uses for copper?

Copper is used for transformers, motors, mobile phones, and for contacts in computers. It's also used in frying pans and utensils.


Why don't we construct electronic device with conductor?

But we do, we do. Copper, Aluminum and other metals are used in many components because they ARE conductors. For example Copper is used in inductors & transformers; Aluminum is used as the plates of most capacitors.

Is the wire coil in a transformer made of an alloy?

Most transformers have coils made of pure copper. This copper is really pure, and it is not an alloy.Certainly we know of situations where other materials are used to wind the cores of transformers. In superconcuctive matnets, the coils are alloys or composite materials that have specific superconductive properties. And don't forget the coils in the calutrons used at Oak Ridge National Laboratory to enhance uranium diring World War 2. They were made of silver that was borrowed by the ton from reserves at Fort Knox!By and large, most transformers we encounter will be wound with pure copper wire. It might be worth noting that recycled copper is not generally used to make copper wire as it is not pure enough. Virgin copper is generally the best choice for electrical wire, and recycled copper works very well for copper pipes and copper tubing.


Is copper wire a substance?

Copper used in wiring would not qualify as laboratory-grade (pure). It would be too expensive to manufacture.


Looking for the composition of electrolytic tough pitch copper?

ETP is 99.5%+ pure copper that is very low in oxygen content it is the most common wire used for transformers Silver content in the wire is consider copper for purity analysis


Is copper wire a pure substance?

No. Copper used in wiring would not qualify as laboratory-grade (pure). It would be far too expensive to manufacture and would not improve the conductivity enough to make a difference. Some copper wire is even plated. Laboratory-grade (pure) copper is a single substance, the element copper.


What are raw materials for making copper wires?

Copper. The main grade of copper used for electrical applications is electrolytic-tough pitch (ETP) copper (CW004A or ASTM designation C11040). This copper is at least 99.90% pure.
