1000 kcmil copper wire. 1000 mcm 1000 kcmil 35kv copper or aluminum epr mv 105 with a copper wire shield is used in primary power and distribution circuits. Stranded bare copper bare or tinned soft annealed medium hard or hard drawn stranded bare copper. Additionally it s in industrial and commercial installations power circuits in generating plants where a line to ground fault current are within shield capabilities. Mil means 1 1000 inch.

Electricians in canada and the united states are familiar with the circular mil because the national electrical code nec uses the circular mil to define wire sizes larger than 0000 awg in many nec publications and uses large wires like your 1000 mcm copper wire may be expressed in thousands of circular mils which is abbreviated in two different ways. Suitable for use in electrical grounding systems including counterpoise grounding and on insulators for overhead transmission and distribution applications.
When large diameter wire sizes such as the widely used 250 kcmil and 350 kcmil wires are specified in kcmil the wire s diameter can be easily determined with the following formula. Awg 4 3125 ln mm2 17 16 approx interpolated awg 4 3125 ln inch2 10 74 approx interpolated logical awg numbers are based on continuing the series in a logarithmic relationship to the cross sectional area of the wire. 1000 61 3 088 since 1992 wire weights per 1000 feet in pounds size 16 4 92 8 19 7 81 12 solid solid solid solid solid solid solid 19 19 19 19 19 19 19 19 19 19 19 19 19 37 37 37 37 37 61 61 50 00 79 50 126 40 200 90 12 40 19 80 31 43 12 70 20 16 32 06 51 81 129 162 205 258 326 411 518 653 772 926 1 081 1 235 1 544 1 853 2 316 15 23 37 16 24.
