SPEC 80150
Bare Copper Wire and Cable
Solid and Stranded
![...](https://d3sx0rvep9h73z.cloudfront.net/cable_image/SPEC80150.png)
Construction:
Bare copper, solid or stranded.
Available in tempers hard, medium-hard, or soft.
Stranded conductors are concentrically stranded in hard and medium-hard tempers and are Combination Unilay stranded in the soft-drawn temper.
Available in tempers hard, medium-hard, or soft.
Stranded conductors are concentrically stranded in hard and medium-hard tempers and are Combination Unilay stranded in the soft-drawn temper.
Applications and Features:
Solid and stranded (classes AA and A) bare copper are suitable for overhead transmission and distribution applications. Stranded conductor of greater flexibility (classes B and C) are suitable for uninsulated hook up, jumpers, and grounds in electrical construction. Soft Drawn copper is unilay construction.
