The best quality copper wire needs to have uniform electrical strength at all times. However, some points of insufficient electrical strength and capacity may remain in the wire. These spots are called "pinholes". In other words, a "pinhole" is a discontinuity in the enamel coating/covering of a cop... read more
Magnet wire is an insulated copper or aluminum conductor used to wrap around motors, transformers, generators, and any other electrical equipment that converts electrical energy into mechanical energy. The insulating layer can be a varnish (enamel) film or some type of cover layer such as polyester ... read more
Copper-clad aluminum wire is made of solid aluminum core wrapped with copper skin to improve its performance in the field. The copper-clad aluminum wire consists of a solid aluminum core covered with a thin copper cladding. About 10% of the conductor cross-sectional area is copper clad, and the thic... read more
Enameled copper wire offers many advantages to appliances. Enamelled aluminum wire, also known as enameled wire, basically refers to aluminum or copper wire that has been coated. This thin insulating layer makes it useful for making transformers, motors, inductors, hard drives, speakers, electromagn... read more
