1. Construction Difficulty:

During circuit construction, the general wire needs to be threaded into the wire tube. The multi-strand wire is a flexible wire, which is easier to bend than a single-strand wire, so it will be easier to thread, and if subsequent maintenance and replacement are required Time is more convenient.

2. Antioxidant aspects:

The copper wire of the multi-strand wire is relatively thin, and it has a large contact area with the air during use, so it is more prone to problems such as corrosion and oxidation, and may cause safety hazards after a long time.

3. Heat dissipation

Multi-strand wires are composed of many thin copper wires with a certain gap between them, so they have an advantage over single-strand wires in terms of heat dissipation.
