Conductors

In electrical engineering, the term "conductor" is used to described the electrical wiring (aka "feeder") that is used to supply power to electrical devices.

• Copper and Aluminum: The two most commonly used conductors
• This section will give information about copper and aluminum as conductors.


• Insulation for Conductors
• All electrical conductors are required to have insulation for protection.


• Colors for distinguishing conductor voltage
• There are different colors for determining the designated voltage flowing through a conductor.


• Chart for sizing copper conductors
• This chart will assist in sizing conductors and conduit in electrical systems.


• Circular Mils of commonly used conductor sizes
• All electrical wiring is measured and sized in terms of circular mils. This chart will show the circular mils for each recognized wire size.


• Insulated Conductor Types
• Electrical wire and cable that has insulation is classified by its use and location.
