Copper clad steel wire and strand combines the electrical characteristics of copper with the mechanical properties of steel.Often used for buried ground grid systems ,overhead ground wire and messenger wire.it can resist mechanical damage during installation,as well as electrical damage during a fault condition. Copper clad steel has virtually no scrap value ,greatly reducing the potential of theft.
