In Reply to: RE: OFC Romex Wire posted by tvi on December 31, 2007 at 16:01:21:
or dead soft copper wire has a 4% better conductivity. Most wire sold today is hard to semi hard annealed in order to facilitate their use in metal conduits. Dead soft annealed copper was widely available in the old days when many installations were not required to use conduits.
I find that the TX series designates the dead soft annealed wire, and it does sound fairly good. In fact I have rolls of it stashed away for DIY projects which may need bus bars like some of the Jadis and their Chinese imitators. You will rarely find TX wire in large stores like Home Depot, but independent electrical contractors will often still have spools of it lying around, and that is where I got my wire.
