Historical Standard: ASTM B2-00(2005)e1 Standard Specification for Medium-Hard-Drawn Copper Wire
SUPERSEDED (see Active link, below)
ASTM B2
1. Scope
1.1 This specification covers medium-hard-drawn round copper wire for electrical purposes (see Explanatory Note 0).
1.2 The SI values of density and resistivity are to be regarded as standard. For all other properties the inch-pound values are to be regarded as standard, and the SI units may be approximate.
1.3 This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety and health practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.
