Features of Aluminum Wire
The use of aluminium cables also has significant economic effects. First, aluminum is much cheaper than copper, and second, aluminum has a higher electrical conductivity and can use the same infrastructure to transmit more electricity. With the continuous growth of global power consumption, the grid cannot handle the existing load, the number of overloads and faults is also increasing, and the construction of new power lines is much more expensive than cable replacement.
Aluminum wire has excellent anti-corrosion performance, lightweight, low density, good heat dissipation, and has strong pressure resistance. It can meet the requirements of 3C products, which require high integration, miniaturization, electromagnetic shielding, etc. Aluminum provides a better conductivity/weight ratio than copper. Therefore, Aluminium is also used for power grid wiring, including overhead transmission lines and local distribution lines, as well as power wiring for some aircraft.
Applications of Aluminum Wire
If aluminum is used as a conductor material, its lower conductivity requires about one-third of the wire size of copper wire. The insulating material used with the wire plays a vital role in performance, and the aluminum wire can have the same current-carrying capacity as the H07RN-F copper wire. The larger wire diameter of aluminum is only disadvantageous in applications requiring close spacing (for example, when installed in a densely packed control box).
Regarding weight, the fact of Aluminium is self-evident. As a raw material, Aluminum is about 70% lighter than copper. This helps to reduce the weight of all components in many application areas. Naturally, when used in cables, the lower weight makes it easy to install. For a long time, high-voltage lines were made of Aluminium. The lighter weight greatly reduces the pulling force exerted on the wires and masts. However, even industries such as automobile manufacturing and aviation are turning to aluminum. Aluminum wire is as much as 60% lighter than a similar current-carrying copper wire.
