Copperweld® Building Wire is a Copper-Clad Aluminum (CCA) bimetallic conductor that, when installed to NEC requirements, offers greater current-carrying capacity than its alternatives.
Considering its specific rating in Code, testing has shown that Copperweld CCA is the most energy-efficient conductor with the lowest voltage drop on the market. This offers energy savings to owners of homes and buildings, performance enhancements, and energy conservation for the good of society.
Installed to NEC requirements and built to UL standards, Copperweld NM-B cable offers more electrical efficiency than its alternatives, pointing to lower monthly utility costs and smoother running equipment for homeowners. Its light weight and flexibility create opportunities for labor savings. Disincentivizing theft, it offers thieves only a small fraction of the scrap value of copper NM-B cable.
Copperweld® Metal-Clad (MC) Cable is a cost-efficient alternative to pipe and wire systems, especially when installing in commercial buildings and places of public assembly. Copperweld® MC Cable offers unsurpassed reliability, provides protection against mechanical damage, permits design flexibility of cable runs, and simplifies cable rerouting for equipment relocation.
Lightweight and flexible, Copperweld® CCA THHN conductors pull easily through conduit over long runs and bends. Installed to NEC requirements, Copperweld THHN CCA construction disincentivizes theft and offers more electrical efficiency than its alternatives, pointing to lower monthly utility costs, less voltage drop and smoother running equipment.
Listed as a Pressure-Type Wire Connector on solid and/or stranded CCA-TO-CCA, CCA-TO-CU and CU-TO-CU conductor wire combinations. Copperweld® splice connectors are suitable for use with Copperweld® CCA Wire. Listed for intermixing between Cu conductors and Copperweld® CCA conductors. Not for use with aluminum wire.
Copperweld® Copper-Clad Aluminum (CCA) Thermostat Cable is a viable alternative for copper conductors in Class 2, 150V thermostat cable applications covered by UL 13, the UL Standard for Power-Limited Circuit Cables.
Copperweld® Copper-Clad Aluminum (CCA) Bell Wire is a viable alternative for copper conductors in a Class 2, 150V bell wire applications covered by UL 13, the UL Standard for Power-Limited Circuit Cables.
Copper is a valuable resource. When sized appropriately, Copperweld CCA conductors utilize 1/6th the amount of copper of traditional copper conductors for the same-sized circuit while delivering lower voltage drop and improved energy efficiency.
CCA offers a fraction of the scrap value of copper building wire.
When sized per Code, CCA delivers improved energy efficiency over alternatives.
CCA is lightweight, flexible, and terminates to standard torquing values.
NEC compliant for 600 Volt residential branch circuit conductors since 1971.
Listed for safety for use in general electrical wiring and branch circuits.
CCA has 50 years of safe performance history in standard circuits.
