Copper vs. Aluminum Core Selection
Both copper (Cu) and aluminium (Al) conductors are available across our full low voltage cable range. Here is a quick guide to help you decide:
|
Comparison |
(Cu) Core |
(Al) Core |
|
Electrical Conductivity |
Excellent (lowest resistivity) |
Good (approximately 1.6 times the resistivity of copper) |
|
Weight |
heavier |
Light (about 1/3 the weight of copper) |
|
Cross-Sectional Area |
A smaller cross-sectional area can meet the same current carrying capacity. |
A larger cross-sectional area is required to compensate for resistivity |
|
Cost |
higher |
Significantly lower than copper (due to smaller price fluctuations) |
|
Bending Construction Performance |
Soft and easy to install |
For larger bending radii, special connectors are required. |
|
Applicable Scenarios |
Indoor power distribution, precision equipment, and space-constrained areas |
Overhead lines, large-section underground cables, and cost-sensitive projects |
|
Recommended Choice |
Commercial buildings, factories, data centers |
Urban power grid, industrial plants, infrastructure projects |
Selection Tips: Projects in parts of the Middle East and Africa often require both copper and aluminum cores. We recommend specifying the project type when requesting a quote, and our technical team can provide free selection advice.
