Bare Copper
Conductor
PHC
APPLICATION
These conductors are a combination of imperial and metric
sizes. Their main use is bare aerial conductors because of
lower elongation and increased tensile rating compared to
annealed copper conductors. They can also be used in earth
mats, and as earthing conductors between earth rods.
