Marked 6 months 6 days ago onto Why are Power Cables Made of Aluminum?

The choice of using aluminum as a conductor depends on the function and application. Indeed, conventional aluminum wire cables do not have the tensile strength or conductive copper cables. But manufacturers worked around this shortcoming by reinforcing cables during production. The use of aluminum conductor reinforcement (ACSR) in power cables solves the problem of low tensile strength.
The reinforcement process makes aluminum a better and lighter alternative to copper cables. In addition, because of the cost difference between the two metals, copper and aluminum, power cable manufacturers more often use aluminum when making power cables. For example, 25mm aluminium cables sometimes cost less than half the price of equivalent copper alternatives.
