FAQ's

What is EC Copper and why is it important in electrical applications?

EC Copper, also known as Electrolytic Copper, C10100, or CW009A, is a high purity copper grade with over 99.95% copper content. It is valued for its outstanding electrical conductivity (≥101% IACS), thermal conductivity, ductility, and corrosion resistance. Due to its purity and low oxygen levels, EC Copper is widely used in electrical, electronic, and thermal applications where high efficiency and performance are essential.

What are the advantages of using EC Copper over other copper alloys?

EC Copper offers superior electrical and thermal conductivity compared to most other copper alloys, making it the preferred choice for current carrying and heat dissipating components. It is highly ductile, weldable, and easy to form into wires, rods, sheets, and busbars. Oxygen-free grades of EC Copper further enhance performance in sensitive electronic applications, reducing signal loss and improving reliability in high frequency and precision systems.

What are the main applications of EC Copper in industries?

EC Copper is extensively used in power transmission and distribution systems for busbars, switchgear, substations, and overhead conductors. It is also widely applied in motors, generators, and transformers for windings, commutators, and terminals.
