| Stranded Type | Upto 10 sq.mm |
| Silver Coating | From 1.25% to 10% Silver by weight, as per ASTM B298 |
Silver Plated Copper Wires are composed by providing concentric silver plating over bare copper conductor. This material enhances the conductivity of copper with the bright & shiny surface of the silver. In addition, the silver coating also show excellent corrosion resistance characteristics. Silver has the highest electrical and thermal conductivity of all metals as well as the highest optical reflectivity. Silver-plated wire offers excellent high-temperature lubricity making it a preferred coating for high friction applications on surfaces exposed to temperatures up to 650◦C.
Due to its superior electrical conductivity compared to standard copper wire, silver-plated copper wire is often used in aircraft wiring harnesses, connectors, and electrical systems . Round wire is used as the center-conductor while flat wire is used for helical wrap and braid wire.
