Other Names For 8-7 stranded bare copper conductors:
8-7 stranded bare copper wire, 8-7 stranded bare electrical wire, 8-7 bare copper ground wire, 8-7 raw copper wire, 8-7 bare earth wire, 8-7 soft annealed copper wire, copper wire grounding, 8 gauge copper wire, 8 awg copper wire, pure copper wire, 8 awg ground wire
Particular applications of 8 AWG 7 stranded bare copper wire:
- As a grounding conductor in electrical systems
- In overhead transmission systems
- In lighting protection systems
- For bonding
- With bus bars
- For electroplating
Applications:
Stranded Bare Copper Wire (class A) is an electrical wire suitable for overhead transmission and distribution. Flexible stranded copper wire (classes B and C) is designed for uninsulated hook up, jumpers, and grounds in electrical construction. The wire is uncoated and unalloyed, which lets the customers enjoy the pure benefits of a copper conductor. Bare conductors of this electrical wire exhibit superior conductivity compared to insulated versions.
Construction:
Conductor:
Stranded Bare Copper Wire has a stranded copper conductor per ASTM B-1, B-2 and B-8. The conductor is available in soft-drawn combination unilay temper. Some of the advantages of copper in cables include conductivity, tensile strength, and the properties of the tensile expansion.
Insulation:
Uninsulated
Jacket:
Unjacketed
Standards:
- ASTM B-1, B-2, B-3, B-8, B-787
- National Electric Code (NEC)
- CSA
- UL listed
Specifications:
- Size AWG: 8
- No. of Strand: 7
- Outside Diameter: 0.146 Inches

APPLICATIONS:
Solid and stranded (classes AA and A) bare copper are suitable for overhead transmission and distribution applications.
Stranded conductor of greater flexibility (classes B and C) are suitable for uninsulated hook up, jumpers, and grounds in
electrical construction. Soft Drawn copper is unilay construction.
SPECIFICATIONS:
- B-3 Soft or Annealed Copper Wire.
- B-8 Concentric-Lay-Stranded Soft Copper Conductor.
- B-33 Tinned Conductors
- B-787 19 Wire Combination Unilay-Stranded Soft copper wire.
CONSTRUCTION:
Bare copper, solid or stranded. Available in tempers soft. Stranded conductors are concentrically
stranded in soft-drawn tempers and are Combination Unilay stranded in the soft-drawn temper.
