43、LANATORY NOTESNOTE 1Silver added to copper in the minimum amount of 25 troyoz./short ton substantially increases its resistance to softening (partialannealing) at elevated temperatures. For copper trolley wire, this meansthat it can be operated at a higher temperature for longer periods of timewitho

44、ut losing its initial tensile strength. For specific conditions of currentcarrying capacity and corresponding expected temperature rise, refer tothe manufacturer for engineering data.NOTE 2It is known that the rapidity with which load is applied to asample during tension testing affects the performa

45、nce of the sample to agreater or lesser extent, depending upon many factors. In general, testedvalues of tensile strength are increased and elongation values are reducedwith increase of speed of the moving head of the testing machine.However, there are speeds below which no practical change is obser

46、vable.It is suggested that tests be made at speeds of moving head which, underno-load conditions, are not greater than 3 in./min, (76 mm/min) but in nocase at a speed greater than that at which correct readings can be made. Nominimum restriction on speed of testing seems necessary.NOTE 3It is not th

47、e intention of this specification to imply that silverbearing copper has greater mechanical properties than non silver bearing.In fact, the addition of silver has no significant effect on the tensilestrength of the alloy. The capability to achieve the higher tensile propertiesrequired for silver bea

48、ring copper is strictly a function of the manufac-turers process.NOTE 4“Resistivity” is used in place of“ percentage conductivity.”The value of 0.15328 g/m2at 20C is the international standard for theresistivity of annealed copper equal to 100 % conductivity. This termmeans that a wire 1 m in length

49、 and weighing 1 g would have aresistanceof 0.15328. This is equivalent to a resistivity value of 875.20 lb/mile2which signifies the resistance of a wire 1 mile in length weighing 1 lb. Itis also equivalent, for example, to 1.7241 /cm of length of a bar 1 cm2in cross section. A complete discussion of this subject is contained in NBSHandbook 100 of the National Bureau of Standards.3Relationships whichmay be useful in connection with
