copper vs cca

Copper wires are specialized highways for electricity. These have been around for decades, decades, decades. These wires are really good at letting electricity pass through with no resistance. Think of electricity like runners sprinting down the wire, copper wires allow them to run ok fast and smooth.

Copper wires can also be very strong. They last a very long time without breaking. Touch a wire made of copper (yeah, actually don't do this!) is how solid and tough it is when you feel it. These wires are so tough, they can withstand a lot of pressure without suffering damage.

The Pros and Cons of Copper and CCA Wiring

CCA wiring is a little different. (CCA) copper-clad aluminum. This is a high-falluting name for a wire that has just a thin layer of copper wrapped around aluminum. Like a chocolate-covered candy bar, the inside is one material, and the outside is another.

The cost of these CCA wires to purchase is inexpensive. For that reason, some people are happy because they can save money. But rodded tantalum wires are not as efficient at conducting electricity as copper wires are. It is like comparing a fast race car against a slower car.
