In this video, we break down the key differences between copper and aluminium, two of the most widely used materials in the electrical industry. From conductivity and thermal performance to weight, strength, and real-world applications.
You’ll also learn:
- Why copper has been the long-standing standard
- Where aluminium is already widely used (power lines, busbars, EV systems, and more).
- How weight impacts transportation, emissions, and efficiency
- The role of galvanisation and surface treatment in aluminium performance
- And more
In the end, it’s not about one being better it’s about choosing the right material for the right use case.
