Hi Darryl,

But what are the differences and when do they come into play?



Question interruptus and my 2 cents worth, Jay...

Except for REAL long lines, like utility transmission lines, the AC skin effect, which is what I think you might be referring to here, is probably not worth worrying about one way or the other. And, since stranded wires are not normally insulated from each other, stranded will act pretty much
just act like one big solid wire for those concerns anyway.

Stranded wire is easier to bend and work with or course for AC or DC, which you already knew.

Well there is very slight differences between AC and Dc But this difference
is so slight that it has no effect on anything we will do.

HI All,

I'm trying to understand this wire issue.

Whether or not there is a difference between stranded or
solid wire for DC or AC.

Any takers on this one?

thanks,

jay
