Copper-clad conductor‌ refers to a conductor in which a copper layer is applied to a base material, typically aluminum or steel.

This type of conductor is used in various applications due to its unique properties and advantages.

Types of Copper-clad Conductors

‌ Copper-clad aluminum conductor (CCAC)‌: This type of conductor has an aluminum core with a copper cladding.

It is used in applications that require high conductivity and flexibility, such as in power cables and transmission lines‌.

‌ Copper-clad steel conductor (CCSC)‌: This type of conductor has a steel core with a copper cladding.

It is used in applications that require high mechanical strength and durability, such as in automotive wiring and electrical systems‌.
