Why can transition metals be used to make electrical wires?
Their high conductivity is why transition metals are used to make electrical wires.
What matrial is a good electrical conductor?
Silver is the best electrical conductor. Copper is second. Gold is third. Aluminum is a good conductor but not for house wiring. It is used for high tension wires.
What is copper used for as an electrical conductor?
Wires.
What is electrical raceways?
an exposed conduit used for carrying electrical wires/cables
What can pure copper be used for?
Pure copper is used for electrical wiring. Pure copper conducts electricity better than impure copper.
Out of silver copper and gold which is the best for electrical wires?
Silver is the most electrically conductive, but copper and gold are used because copper is less expensive, and gold does not corrode.

What is married Joint in Electrical?
The married joint is an electrical joint used for joining multi-strand cables. The wires are unstranded, then interlaced with the wires of the other cable, and then married (twisted) together before finally being soldered.
Which type of wires used in electrical works?
Electrical wire is the type of wire that is used in electrical equipment. To strip the wires, you need to use wire strippers. There is also special tape called electrical tape that is used to secure the wire.
What is electrical raceways?
an exposed conduit used for carrying electrical wires/cables
Why can't sodium be used in electric wires?
It can be used in electrical wires. Actually, in the future a lot of electrical wire may be made mostly of sodium. Google "lightweight composite electrical wire".
What can pure copper be used for?
Pure copper is used for electrical wiring. Pure copper conducts electricity better than impure copper.
Is gold used in aeroplanes?
Gold is only used in conductors and wires in airplanes. This is because gold is very lightweight and does not rust.
Why silver is not used in electrical wires?
Because it is costly
Element used to make jewelry wires electrical contacts?
cheese
