What else can I help you with?
Is silver a better conductor of electricity than copper?
No, copper is a better conductor of electricity than silver. Copper has a lower electrical resistivity compared to silver, making it more efficient for conducting electricity. This is why copper is widely used in electrical wiring and transmission lines.
Is copper an insulator or a conductor?
It is a very good conductor. It is used in wiring to deliver electricity.
Is copper conductor or insulators?
Conductor, which is why it's used for wires.
Is a copper pipe a conductor or an insulator?
A copper pipe is a conductor :) x
Can copper wire would be a good conductor of electricity?
Yes, copper wire is an excellent conductor of electricity due to its high electrical conductivity. It is commonly used in electrical wiring and transmission of electricity due to its efficiency in carrying electrical current.
Why copper is used in electrical transmission line?
Copper is a good conductor and is fairly strong. It generally is not used in power transmission lines due to cost - generally aluminimum is used.
It transmits electricity like copper?
Aluminum is a good conductor of electricity similar to copper. It is often used in power transmission lines due to its conductivity and lower cost compared to copper.
Are copper wires and not steel wires used in electric circuits although both copper and steel are electrical conductors?
Steel is not used as an electrical conductor because, although it is a conductor, it's not a very good conductor -as is copper and aluminium, for example. A steel-wire core is used, however, to reinforce aluminium conductors on transmission tower lines
Is silver a better conductor of electricity than copper?
No, copper is a better conductor of electricity than silver. Copper has a lower electrical resistivity compared to silver, making it more efficient for conducting electricity. This is why copper is widely used in electrical wiring and transmission lines.
What else apart from electricity is copper a conductor of?
Copper is also a conductor of heat, making it useful in applications such as cooking pots and HVAC systems. Additionally, copper can act as a conductor for data transmission, commonly used in communication cables like ethernet.
What does aluminum foil do to electricity?
Aluminum is a good conductor of electricity. While it won't actively "do" anything to electricity, it will pass electric current if it used as part of a circuit. Aluminum is used in overhead power transmission lines as it is lighter than an equivalent copper conductor.
Is aliminium an insulator or conductor?
Aluminium is a good conductor of electricity. It is widely used in electrical wiring and transmission lines due to its conductive properties.
Is aluminium conductor or semi conductor?
Aluminum is a conductor of electricity. It is commonly used in electrical wiring and transmission lines due to its high conductivity.
Is copper an insulator or a conductor?
It is a very good conductor. It is used in wiring to deliver electricity.
Is copper conductor or insulators?
Conductor, which is why it's used for wires.
Is a copper pipe a conductor or an insulator?
A copper pipe is a conductor :) x
What are the round ball like structure on the topmost line in power transmission lines?
The topmost conductor in a transmission line is called the guard conductor; it is an earthed (grounded) conductor that links the metal support towers. Its function is to protect the transmission lines against lightning strikes. The coloured balls that are sometimes seen distributed along the guard conductor are intended to make the lines easier to see in those areas where aeroplanes might be flying -they are often seen on lines in the vicinity of airfields. They are also used in areas, such as nature reserves, to make the lines visible to large birds.
