Market Sector

Electrical Power &
Communications

High conductivity copper products for power cables, busbars, conductors, connectors and communication wiring.

Continuous Casting for Power & Comms

Casting technology for electrical infrastructure

Rautomead’s continuous casting systems produce high conductivity metal products such as copper rod, bar, tube and strip, as well as selected copper alloys. These casts are used downstream in applications such as power cables, busbars, conductors, connectors and communication wiring.

In this sector surface quality, electrical conductivity and dimensional consistency/accuracy are critical!

Power Cables

High conductivity copper rod for energy transmission and distribution networks.

Busbars & Conductors

Copper bar and strip products for switchgear, transformers and power distribution.

Communication Wiring

Precision copper products for telecommunications and data infrastructure.

Why Copper

The material of choice for power and communications

Copper is the choice material as it boasts superior ductility, electrical and thermal conductivity and reliability, while copper alloys are used where higher strength or wear resistance is needed without compromising on conductivity.

Electrical Conductivity

Superior performance

Thermal Conductivity

Efficient heat dissipation

Ductility

Easily formed and drawn

Reliability

Long-term dependability
