Industrial development is backed by metallurgical advancement of the copper wires. Wire and cable products are being used in the developed countries as well as newly industrialized regions of the world. In western countries alone, more than 80 percent of all copper and its alloys are used for the purpose of electrical connectivity. Copper wires and the cables made of different types of windings like stranded copper wire and bunched copper wire that have distinct physical and electrical properties. The most basic type of copper cable is the bare copper wire . It is used in the production of wire rods with thin dimensions. It can be recycled easily from the base scrap materials.  What are the primary types of copper wire used in the industry?  Depending on the application and niche of the industrial set-up, the wire and cable mad of copper can be branded in the following categories.  - Building copper wire   - Magnet wire  - Telecommunications copper wire and cable  -
