Electric Wire refers to discarded, unused, or end-of-life wires collected from residential, commercial, and industrial electrical systems. These wires typically consist of copper or aluminum conductors insulated with plastic, PVC, or rubber coatings. Electric wire scrap may include single-core or multi-core cables, flexible wires, and small wiring pieces removed during maintenance, replacement, or dismantling of electrical setups.

This type of scrap is highly valued in the recycling industry due to the recoverable copper or aluminum content, which can be efficiently extracted and reused. Electric Wire scrap is suitable for smelting units, metal recovery plants, and recycling facilities. Proper recycling of electric wires supports sustainable waste management, reduces environmental impact, and provides a cost-effective source of high-quality metal for manufacturing new electrical products.
