The core of the nVent ERICO Cu-Bond Round Conductor is a low carbon steel grade for improved flexibility in the field. The steel core is plated with nickel then electro-plated with a coating of copper. This electro-plating process helps ensure a long lasting molecular bond between the copper layer and the steel. The steel core of the conductor provides theft-deterrent benefits, making the conductor difficult to cut with hand tools. With this steel core, nVent ERICO Cu-Bond Round Conductor is a cost effective alternative to 100% copper conductor. The copper surface of the conductor provides high conductivity and corrosion resistance properties. Above grade, the unique properties of nVent ERICO Cu-Bond Round Conductor make it ideal for both horizontal and vertical placement.
- Theft-deterrent; steel core is hard to cut with hand tools
- Cost-effective; copper bonded to a steel core minimizes the amount of copper in the cable
- Superior corrosion resistance; application life of typically 30-40 years in most soil conditions
- Copper-bonded coating will not crack or tear when the conductor is bent
- High resistance to corrosion and provides a low-resistance path to ground
- nVent ERICO Cu-Bond Round Conductor is marked every meter (3.28') for easy measurement in the field
- Meets the requirements of IEC® 62305-3 Edition 2 and IEC/EN 62561-2 for lightning protection applications
