Coppor Coil vs Aluminium Coil motor, Water pump

Difference between copper coil and aluminum coil motor.

The war between these two metals continues to rage on; both vying to become the number one contender as the ideal component for windings in a motor, water pump, transformer etc. Due to both metals being thermal and electrical conductors, they often cross paths. However, it’s usually down to the individual preferences of the person designing, or specifying, the transformer, as to which one gets the nod.

Copper coil

Copper is a soft, malleable and ductile metal. It is a very high thermal and electrical conductivity. Upon appearance, copper has a reddish-orange colour.

Melting point: 1,085 °C

Boiling Point: 2,562 °C

Aluminum:

Aluminum is a soft, non-magnetic, ductile metal. It is silvery-white in appearance and fairly reflective.

Melting Point: 660.3 °C

Boiling Point: 2,470 °C

Therefore, Copper coil is stronger than aluminum coil motor. It expands less but both materials have a similar maintenance schedule. Copper can carry almost twice the current capacity of aluminum, which makes them slightly smaller in size than aluminum wound Motor.
