Among voltage, low voltage held a dominant position in the global single core copper wire market in 2022, accounting for 40% market revenue share, followed by medium and high. Increasing the demand of single core copper wire in automotive industry can drive the market growth.
Market Restraints
High cost of copper wire in the market and increased the use of fiber optic cable can restrain the market growth. Lack of armour, single core wire is more exposed to damage from external forces which can hamper the market growth. Moreover, copper wire is its susceptibility to corrosion, that is, oxidation which can restraint the market growth.
Market Trends
Increasing environmental concerns towards high carbon emissions are leading to the up gradation of existing power transmission and distribution units, this can helps to boost the copper wire market in upcoming years. Additionally, rising the usage of copper wires in heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) systems, electronic entertainment devices, lighting solutions, etc., across smart homes is boost the demand of copper wire and increase the market growth.
Rising adoption of copper wires in telecommunication services can helps to boost the copper wire market in the forecast period. Moreover, the development of hybrid power solutions which are offer high energy density, minimal carbon footprints, and increase reliability can help to propel the market growth in upcoming years.
For instance, in November 2022, Nexans (Fiber optic cable manufacturing company) announced that they are entered into a share purchase agreement with Reka Industrial Plc to acquire Reka Cables and increased their production and sales.

Among application, building and construction segment held a dominant position in the global single core copper wire market in 2021, accounting for 30% of market share. Increased usage of copper wires in heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) systems, electronic entertainment devices, lighting solutions, etc., across smart homes is boost the demand of copper wire and increase the market growth.
Global Single Core Copper Wire Market - Impact of Coronavirus (COVID-19) Pandemic
The COVID-19 has positively as well as negatively affected the automotive industry. Due to lockdowns, countries are banned to travel and shutdown of business can reduce the economic and industries growth of the developing countries. Disruption in raw materials supplies and freeze the supply chain during the pandemic single core copper wire market witnessed the lower growth. However, China is the global manufacturing hub of copper wire, with the presence of and the largest raw material suppliers. The overall market breaks down due to COVID-19 is also affecting the growth of the single core copper wire market due to shutting down of factories and downturn in world economy.

Market Definition
A single copper electrical conductor is known as copper wire. Copper wires are mainly used in electrical wiring. Single core means that there is a single piece of metal wire, typically copper or aluminum, with insulation around it. The wire can be different gauges, as the size of the wire increases, the flexibility will generally decrease. Single core cables are best suitable for domestic and home applications. Power generation, distribution, telecommunication, electronic circuitry, and transmission are used copper wire. In many types of electrical wiring, copper serves as the electrical conductor. Electrical connections can also be made from copper and its alloys. Copper has the lowest electrical resistance in all the non-precious metals. Copper is characterized by excellent thermal and electrical conductivity.
