Nickel-Clad Copper Stranded Wire

NCC stranded conductors combine nickel-clad copper wires in a defined construction. Specify strand count, individual wire diameter, overall diameter and lay, together with resistance and flexibility requirements. Include the temperature profile, insulation system and termination method.

Construction and specification

Material
Nickel Clad Copper (Ni/Cu)
Product form
Stranded wire
Dimensions
Diameter (Ø): 0.5-20 mm
Electrical specification
Specify copper grade, nickel layer basis and resistance test conditions

Specify strand count, individual and overall diameters, nickel-layer construction and ratio basis. Include bend duty, joints, insulation, temperature profile and exposure medium. Qualify the conductor assembly against the agreed test plan.

Specifications and Documentation

Identify the product form, standard and edition required by the drawing. A material standard does not establish approval for the finished assembly. Agree inspection methods, acceptance limits and required documents for the order.

Use the drawing and a material/form-specific purchase specification. Round-wire references do not qualify rolled strip, foil or flat wire. Confirm edition, methods and acceptance criteria.

Product questions

What defines the temperature limit of an NCC strand?

The individual wires, insulation, terminations and operating duty determine the limit. Specify the temperature profile and exposure time, then test the defined strand and its joints.

Which dimensions define the strand?

Strand count, individual wire diameter, lay and finished diameter define the construction. Single-wire properties and complete-strand resistance or tensile results need separate specifications.

Prepare your inquiry

  • Strand count, strand diameter, lay and finished diameter
  • Required resistance, tensile load and termination
  • Core and outer-layer metals, each layer or ratio, and mass or volume basis
  • Surface finish or coating, joining method and inspection requirements
  • Quantity, spool or coil format, packaging and delivery destination
