Electrical wire can consist of several different elements from Aluminum to copper and even steel. Many types of wire have been made from silver and also gold, depending on the application, and it's no uncommon to plate the wire with another metal to avoid corrosion or rust.

Can you change from aluminum wire to copper wire in a new oven?
Copper is preferable to aluminum and the size of wire should be the same or the next size down if copper is used.
Can you splice solid copper wire to stranded copper wire?
Yes as long as you use an approved splice, such as a wire-nut.

Is a copper wire the same as a zinc wire?
No. While they are both metals, and both are elements, copper and zinc wire are made from different elements, and would be used for different results or purposes.

What has more resistance a nichrome wire or a copper wire?
Nichrome wire has such high resistance that it is used to convert electrical energy into heat. Many heating elements are made from nichrome. Copper wire has the best conductivity, for the price, of any metal.

Are aluminum cans coins glass or copper wire are good electrical conductors?
Copper wire is the best, glass is the worst. Coins are not bad, aluminium cans are OK for small amounts of current. Modern steel coins are worse than the old coins with copper in them.
