This European Standard specifies the composition, property requirements including electrical properties, and
tolerances on dimensions and form for copper rod, bar and wire for general electrical purposes. Cross-sections and
size ranges are:
round, square and hexagonal rod with diameters or widths across-flats from 2 mm up to and including 80 mm;
rectangular bar with thicknesses from 2 mm up to and including 40 mm and widths from 3 mm up to and
including 200 mm;
round, square, hexagonal and rectangular wire with diameters or widths across-flats from 2 mm up to and
including 25 mm, as well as thicknesses from 0,5 mm up to and including 12 mm with widths from 1 mm up to
and including 200 mm.
The sampling procedures, the methods of test for verification of conformity to the requirements of this standard and
the delivery conditions are also specified.
NOTE Drawn, round copper wire plain or tinned, single or multiline for the manufacture of electrical conductors is specified
in prEN 13602.
