· Speaker wire size quick guide. For most cases using home or car speakers (not subwoofers) 18 gauge (18AWG) is fine. 18AWG wire is good for about 50W for 4 ohm (car) speakers and 100W for 8 ohm (home stereo) speakers. For higher power systems or longer lengths, 16 gauge is a great choice.
Thick wire (12 or 14 gauge) is recommended for long wire runs, high power applications, and low-impedance speakers (4 or 6 ohms). For relatively short runs (less than 50 feet) to 8 ohm speakers, 16 gauge wire will usually do just fine. It’s cost-effective and easy to work with. Ask your advisor to recommend the proper gauge for your installation.

· BX cable is more expensive than NM cable. NM cable tends to run about 25-percent cheaper than BX cable as it ships lighter and uses fewer source materials. Handling. BX is heavy and difficult to run through studs. Not only is NM cable light, but the slippery coating makes the cable easy to pull through holes in studs.
· Because Copper is an excellent electrical conductor, most of its common uses are for electrical purposes. Many common applications also rely on one or more beneficial properties, such as the fact that it is a good thermal conductor or has low reactivity (reaction with water and acids).

· Updated November 25, 2019. The world's 20 largest copper mines produce nearly 9 million metric tons of the precious metal a year, about 40% of the world's total copper mine capacity. Chile and Peru, alone, account for more than half of the copper mines on this list. The U.S. makes the cut, as well, with two mines among the top 20.
· In wet inoculation of copper surfaces with bacteria, the copper homeostatic systems of the cell appear to play a role. Pseudomonas aeruginosa PAO1 deleted in the cinR gene, encoding a copper-responsive regulator, or the cinA gene, encoding an azurin-like protein involved in copper resistance, was more rapidly killed on copper surfaces than the
· The Spruce / Margot Cavin It helps to understand a few basic terms used to describe wiring. An electrical wire is a type of conductor, which is a material that conducts electricity.In the case of wiring, the conductor itself is usually copper or aluminum (or copper-sheathed aluminum) and is either a solid metal conductor or stranded wire.
Electrical wire and cable must be sized and installed correctly to pass an electrical inspection and keep electricity running safely through your home. This guide will teach you the difference between types of electrical wires and types of electrical cables. You’ll also learn how to choose between electrical cables and wires for your projects.

· Properties Copper has a melting point of 1083.4 /- 0.2°C, boiling point of 2567°C, specific gravity of 8.96 (20°C), with a valence of 1 or 2. Copper is reddish colored and takes a bright metallic luster. It is malleable, ductile, and a good conductor of electricity and heat. It is second only to silver as an electrical conductor.
· There are many types of electrical wire. Understanding which type is best for your application can be confusing. It is important to make the proper selection. Using the wrong type of wire can lead to failures and fires. For this article, we will focus on the wire typically used in automotive, boat, RV, and motorcycle applications.

Crimp-on wire connectors are typically made of steel or copper, and require a crimping tool to attach correctly. They are designed for making permanent, pressure-type connections and are therefore not reusable. Crimp-on connectors afford a very secure connection. Plastic cap insulators can be used after the connection is made.

· Copper or Aluminum. Aluminum wire is cheaper than copper, but the wires must be thicker to carry the same amount of current. In addition, every type of attachment (breakers, outlets, etc.) must be specifically rated for use with aluminum wire (and many are not). Lastly, care must be taken to apply the correct anti-oxidizing paste.
