2Every country has a different electrical service
which requires cable wires to match the
requirement. For instance, in developed countries
electric current is distributed in alternating
form fluctuating between 120-240 volts. There are
still some applications which are supplied with
the 240 volts in a direct form. If an electrical
appliance is connected meant for AC supply is
connected to the other supply, the chances of
damage and short circuit is quite possible.
3AC Supply versus DC supply Bunched Copper Wires
is the Key
- Copper wires and cables used in the electrical
service to homes compliments the 120-240 volts
supply. They are different from the wires used in
the DC supply by virtue of their diameter and
amount of insulation. For a given wattage of
electricity supplying 120 Volts, the copper wire
is larger than the ones used in the direct
supply.
4USA is the largest consumer of the bunched copper
wires. It is used largely as building wire in the
residential units, commercial offices,
conventional industrial space and even
recreational centres. Stadiums, Gaming arenas and
swimming pools are all lined with bunched copper
wires and fall under the segment of building
wires. The use of bunched copper wires has
increased significantly in the last ten years.
From a commercial point of view, about 550,000
tonnes of bunched copper wires was used by USA
alone. It consumes 60 percent of the world
supply.
Leading Nations use Bunched Copper Wires
5Growing Use of Appliances driving the Commercial
Success
- The high usage of the bunched copper wires is
attributed to the growing consumption of the
electrical appliance at home like television,
music systems, lighting units, refrigerator,
washing machine, food processors, home theatres,
electrical heaters, geysers, microwave ovens and
air-conditioners. They are high-consumption units
and require bunched copper wires of highest
quality. The families can no longer afford to
live in darkness or manage the alarmingly
changing weather condition. Bunched copper wires
are better than other set of building wires and
cables owing to their high reliability. These
wires are compatible with the electrical supply
derived from the natural gas as well without any
fluctuation.
6Aluminium continues to be the leading material
used for electrical supply. Only bunched copper
wires are pushing the trends in its favour. World
over, bunched copper wires are used in more than
90 per cent buildings in the developed nations.
In the year 1980, the use of bunched copper wires
was less than 70 percent. The industry has
labelled the bunched copper wires as a quality
replacement of aluminium wires. In developing
nations, bunched copper wires are still fighting
for a rightful place owing to the high price. In
building wires and cables, bunched copper wires
are used in larger diameters as feeder cables in
subpanels and floor-to-floor multi-storey
electrical supply.
Market trend Bunched Copper Wires may overtake
Aluminium wires
