Conductive Properties of Metals and Alloys
Copper Wire Conductivity
The temperature coefficient changes according to temperature and conductivity If the tem-
perature coefficient at 20
°
C is
α
20
and the temperature coefficient for conductivity C at t°C is
α
ct
,
α
ct
is determined as follows near ambient temperature.
For example, the temperature coefficient of international standard annealed copper is 3930
ppm/°C at 20°C. For tinned annealed copper wire (with diameter from 0.10 to less than 0.26
mm), the temperature coefficient
α
20
at 20°C is calculated as follows:
