Abstract

AS INDIGENOUS resources of copper are not sufficient to meet the mounting engineering demands for the transmiss-
ion of electricity, it is being increasingly replaced by aluminium as electrical conductivity of aluminium is second only to that of copper amongst engineering cond-uctor materials. Whereas copper conductors employ copper of highest purity to obtain maximum conductivity, alum-inium conductors cannot be made from super-pure alumin-
ium inspite of its superior electrical conductivity as
it is soft and of inferior strength.
