19、d specifica-tion requirements of Specification B 452.5.2 The nickel-coated wire shall consist of the basis wirecoated with nickel (Note 2). The quality of the nickel-coatedwire shall be such that the finished product meets the propertiesand requirements in this specification.NOTE 2Nickel on copper-c

20、lad steel wire provides a protective coatingfor a prevention of oxidation of the copper either during fabrication orservice.6. General Requirements6.1 Tensile strength and elongation of the nickel-coatedwire shall conform to the requirements of Specification B 452for the applicable size and class of

21、 copper-clad steel wire.6.2 ResistivityThe electrical resistivity at a temperature of20C shall not exceed the values prescribed in Table 2. SeeNote 3 for calculating electrical resistance.NOTE 3Relationships which may be useful in connection with thevalues of electrical resistivity prescribed in thi

22、s specification are shown inTable 3. Resistivity units158 V-mm2/m and 0.15328 V-g/m2at 20C arerespectively the international equivalent of volume and mass resistivity ofannealed copper equal to 100 % conductivity. The latter term means thata copper wire1minlength and weighing 1 g would have a resist

23、ance of0.15328 V. This is equivalent to a resistivity value of 875.20 Vlb/mile2,which signifies the resistance of a copper wire 1 mile in length weighing1 lb. The volume resistivity is equivalent, for example, to 1.7241 V cmof length of a copper bar 1 cm2in cross section. A complete discussion ofthi

24、s subject is contained in NBS Handbook 100. The use of five significantfigures in expressing resistivity does not imply the need for a greateraccuracy of measurement than that specified in Test Method B 193. Theuse of five significant figures is required for complete reversible conver-sion from one

25、set of resistivity units to another.TABLE 1 Nickel Mass Percent and Thickness of CoatingDiameter Cross-Sectional Area at 20CThickness of Nickel, in.(for information only)in. mm cmil in.2mm22.0 % 4.0 % 7.0 % 10.0 % 27.0 %0.0720 1.829 5 180 0.00407 2.63 334 637 1 181 1 703 4 8920.0641 1.628 4 110 0.00

Test Methods10.1 Tensile

48、PropertiesFor tensile strength, elongation,resistivity, dimensional measurement, and the quality of thebasis wire, the latest issue of Specification B 452 shall applyand the tests shall be performed on the nickel-coated wire(Note 6).NOTE 6It is known that the rate of loading during tension testingaf

49、fects the performance of the sample to a greater or lesser extentdepending upon many factors. In general, tested values of tensile strengthare increased and tested values of elongation are reduced with increase ofspeed of the moving head of the testing machine. In the case of tests onsoft or annealed wire, however, the effects of speed of testing are notpronounced. Tests of soft wire made at speeds of moving head whichunder no-load conditions are not greater than 12 in./min (300 mm/min) donot alter the final results of tensile strength
