Magnet Wire
Magnet wire sometimes referred to as “Winding Wire” is a copper or aluminum wire that is insulated with a thin film or coating and creates a magnetic field when the wire is would in a coil and power is applied. Magnet wire is used in transformers, generators and a long list of electrical components in almost anything with an electric motor.
Magnet wire comes in a variety of sizes which refer to the diameter of the wire and also categorized by the shape of the profile including rectangular, square, round, etc. The term “enameled” also refers to the insulation applied to the copper wire. Technically the magnet wire is not coated with actual enamel but usually coated with one to four layers of thin film made of polyester, polyglass and or polymide, you can read more about insulation by clicking here.
