Copper wires wound like a hair strand in a braid find their way into most electrical as well as thermo-electric applications. Braided copper wire is popularly called as electrolytic copper wire owing to their manufacturing and coating processes. Mostly manufactured in wire extrusion or annealing methods, the copper wires tied in a braid comprise of materials involving the segment of bare copper, tin-plated, silver coating and submersible copper wires. Copper wires find their use in earthing and marine engineering mostly due to its extensive electrical and magnetic conductivity properties in addition to flexible physical properties which promotes its use as wires and plates. Modern day applications include their use in shielded cables and control panel in switch gear. Soldering and earthing wire assembly in CRT channels also make use of distinct copper wires wounded in braids.
Contemporary braided copper wires follow a standard principle of adopting two terminals for flexible grounding. The two terminals are made of copper cylinders with silver or tin coating on the surface. The size may vary depending on the customer specification and the mode of processing used to achieve a flexible joint. This mode of construction ensures that the copper wires retain their high conductive ratio supplemented with the anti-corrosion and fatigue-proof characteristics.
Construction process
Braided wires are drawn in two ways:
• Flat Braided Wire
• Tubular Braided Wire
These wire segments are listed as per MIL specification for products that need to retain constant physical as well as electrical properties under all conditions of varying temperature, magnetic field and mechanical tension. The wire strands are coated with tin and then woven or rolled to a standard width as per specifications given by client. Mostly, concentric and semi-concentric windings are used for industrial appliances. Round configuration ensures that they are easy to store and transport over a long distance. The structural configuration also guarantees that the copper wires don’t lose their permittivity and other elemental properties due to idle storage.
Multiple threads of concentric layers can be achieved using only high quality impurity free copper wires. Tin coating is done when these wires are meant to be used for industry specific applications like corrosion-resistant operations and in machineries where heat dissipates risking a loss in efficiency.
Industrial and domestic uses of Braided wire sets
Flexible wire joints in electrical appliance, switch gears and switchboards, electrical kitchen appliances and stoves, battery cells and grounding cables use braided wire sets.
Electrical appliances working in fluctuating voltage conditions have braided copper wires at their core. Mining industry with explosive detonations and automobile industry extensively make use of copper wires due to its high conductivity and anti-rust properties in damp conditions. Heavy duty machineries used in saline conditions like in submersible motors used in ships, submarines and oil drillers also make use of braided coppers.
With the growing popularity of lightweight musical instruments and domestic appliances in acoustics, braided category of wires are used in headphone assembly, shielding circuits, soldering wires, control board panels and amplifiers. Due to high tensile strength and ductility,copper wired drawn into braid are used in guitar and other string instruments to produce melodious notes.
