Bare copper earth wire conductors refer to pure copper wires drawn from shiny or flexible pure copper rods, usually called bare copper wires. It has copper metallic luster, smooth appearance, translucent, very high electrical conductivity, and excellent transmission performance. High strength, high conductivity, high flexibility, is the first choice for grounding wire.
Bare copper wire is a very common type of wire that is connected directly or through another ground conductor to ground, often referred to as a ground wire.
Bare copper wire is the simplest and most basic type of wire and cable product. It is widely used in our production and life, and part of the bare copper wire is used as the ground wire of production and living equipment.
Generally speaking, the grounding wire is the wire directly connected to the earth, and it can also be called the safety return line. When the voltage is unstable and the abnormal high voltage is in danger, it can transfer the high voltage directly to the earth in an instant. lifeline.
The bare copper grounding wire has very good electrical conductivity, as well as physical and mechanical properties such as high strength.
The ground wire is a method in electrical protection. Its function is to quickly introduce the current to the ground through the grounding wire when your electrical equipment is leaking or inductively charged, so that the equipment shell is no longer charged, thus ensuring the safety of personnel and equipment. Therefore, the most important feature of the bare copper grounding wire is high conductivity, which can quickly guide the current into the ground and ensure the safety of personnel, equipment and buildings.
Bare copper grounding wire is a wire with bare surface and no insulation layer, which is widely used in electric power, transportation, telecommunication engineering, motor and transformer manufacturing.

The copper grounding wire is made of soft material, has excellent electrical conductivity and strong heat transfer capability.
Bare copper wire must meet GB/T 3953 "Electrical Round Copper Wire", GB/T 4909 "Test Method for Bare Wire", ASTM B1 "Standard for Hard Drawn Copper Wire", ASTM B3 "Standard for Soft Round or Annealed Copper Wire", JIS C 3102 "Annealed copper wire for electrical purposes"
After the bare copper grounding wire is produced, it must be packaged, stored, handled and transported in strict accordance with customer and industry standards to ensure that the product is free from moisture and damage.
Q: How is a bare copper earth wire installed?
-A: The installation of a bare copper earth wire typically involves connecting one end to the grounding electrode system, such as a grounding rod or a metal water pipe, and the other end to the electrical system's grounding bus or terminal.
Q: Can a bare copper earth wire be used for other applications?
A: Yes, apart from electrical grounding, bare copper earth wire can also be used in various other applications. It is commonly used in lightning protection systems, telecommunications grounding, and in some cases, as a component in overhead power transmission lines.
