copper wiring
Home's hidden circuits
Copper wiring is electrical wire made from copper, valued for its excellent conductivity and flexibility.
It's the standard material for household electrical systems, electronics, and power transmission.
The term often appears in discussions of infrastructure, home construction, or theft—copper's scrap value makes it a target: Someone stripped the copper wiring from the abandoned building.
