Wires. The wires for high-tension transmission lines are ofhard-drawn copper or of aluminum. Copper wires are solid butaluminum wires are stranded, as solid aluminum wires are not asstrong as stranded wires. This is true because in the manufactureof aluminum it is difficult to produce a wire which has absolutelyuniform tensile strength, hence in a solid wire there may be weakspots which are avoided by the use of stranded conductor. Aerialhigh-tension conductors are always uninsulated. The size of the conductors in the transmission line is deter-mined by the al
