Solid Bare Copper Wire (class AA) is an electrical wire suitable for overhead transmission and distribution applications. … Bare conductors of this electrical wire exhibit superior conductivity compared to insulated versions.

What does bare copper mean?

Bare copper is fairly resistant to corrosion, but when it is used in wet environments or places with high humidity, it can quickly become damaged. When bare copper is operating at temperatures that exceed 100 degrees Celsius, it may start to degrade. This kind of damage can result in a loss of performance.

What does solid copper mean?

Solid copper conductors means the cables wires are one long solid wire instead of multiple copper strands forming one wire like stranded cable. … This is means that the cable has solid conductors that are made up copper clad aluminum instead of pure copper.
