Why is a conductor always made up of strands of copper wire?

Answer:

The larger sections of cable are made of a plurality of smaller cross-section conductors, which are easy to manufacture and store, and form large cables of various sections
The wire consists of soft cable and the common cable cable, ordinary small section are single stranded conductors, soft cable conductor is composed of a plurality of strands of copper wires, and flexible cable conductor shares more convenient to use in a variety of environments, single stranded conductor is hard, the construction, the installation is not convenient, repeatedly bending easily broken, flexible cable resistance repeated bending.
