Copper is a better conductor by weight, but aluminum is better by weight, so the copper will be thinner but heavier.
You will see that a 250 kcmil aluminium wire will get you 170 amps at 60 degC while a 000 (or 3/0) copper wire will get you 165 amps at 60 degC.
I think you mean circular mils, not square millimeters.

What sized of copper cable to replaced 240 square millimeter aluminium cable?

What is the ampacity of 10mm cable?
The rule of thumb is 1mm square=6Amp so 10mm square will,for safety reasons and for a copper conductor, carry 50Amps.
Why aluminium cable cost less than copper cable?
copper cost more to mine then aluminum so aluminum will cost less then copper cable.
What difference between copper cable and optical cable?
A copper cable transports electrical signals. An optical cable transports light signals.
What ia Standard of dc loop resistance of copper cable?

What machines do you use to recycle copper from scrap cable and copper wire?
I know two kind of machines for copper recycling. One is cable granulator which is used for making copper core into small granules by grinding cable and separating PVC. This is a ideal machine for miscellaneous cable. The other is copper wire stripper which is to strip the PVC cover and you get the entire copper core. This is widely used in various copper wire various diameters.
Different between fiber optical cable and copper cable?
Fiber optic cable is constructed out of glass or plastic, and uses light pulses to transmit data. Copper cable is made out of copper material (not glass or plastic) and uses electrical voltages to transmit signals.

Which media types use copper as a conductor?

If you can see a copper conductor cable what should you do with the cable?
according to CompTIA A+ guide to hardware Lab Manual: "Any visible copper is an indication you need a new cable." -jazzmarazz13
