The TESORAX catalogue outlines four main product families: copper braids, flexible copper cables, braid connectors, and Litz wires/cables, all tailored for electrical applications. TESORAX, with a century of expertise, offers customized solutions with products manufactured in Spain.
- Flexible Copper Braids: Available in various forms such as flat, round, and insulated, these braids are made from fine annealed electrolytic copper wires, providing high flexibility and reduced bending radius. They are used in electrical equipment connections, grounding, and protective equipment.
- Copper Braids Flexible Connectors: Utilized in electrical applications like grounding and energy distribution systems.
- Flexible Copper Cables: Offered in extra flexible, bare, and water-cooled variants, suitable for diverse electrical applications.
- Litz Cables/Wires: Designed for high-frequency applications, used in electronics and energy industries.
The catalogue includes detailed specifications for each product type, covering conductor materials, braid construction, and application areas. It features tables with reference codes, section sizes, exterior diameters, cable mass, and resistance values for both bare and tinned copper options.
TESORAX products are employed across sectors such as electronics, automotive, clean energies, industry, railway, and energy production/distribution. Specific uses include circuit breakers, grounding, welding stations, and high-frequency coils.
Products come in various packaging options, with customization available to meet specific customer needs. Specifications are subject to change and are provided for informational purposes.
Detailed specifications for copper cables and connectors include nominal and effective sections, sizes, mass per kilometer, and resistance values, covering both bare and tinned copper options with sections from 0.5 mm² to 5000 mm².
The manufacturing process for flexible braided copper connectors involves electrolytic copper wires, with customization options for measurements, sections, and shapes, and insulation with various materials.
References include DIN 46.399 for packaging, UNE-EN 13599 for copper bare steels, CEI 60228 for copper braids, and EN 13602 for copper wires.
Recommendations include using tinned copper for improved resistance and applying a silver bath for enhancement. Suggested applications include grounding, electrical equipment manufacturing, and energy distribution.
Tables provide detailed measurements and specifications for cables and connectors, including mass, resistance, and dimensions. For example, the CT-0.5-05/01 cable has a nominal section of 0.5 mm², an effective section of 0.5 mm², a size of 1.1 mm, and a mass of 5.1 kg/km.
Highlighted applications include automotive, aerospace, IT, and military industries, with specific uses in electrochemistry, welding, induction furnaces, and electromagnet supply.
Emphasizes selecting the appropriate cable or connector based on installation requirements, including section size, insulation type, and terminal configuration, and adhering to specified standards for safety and performance.
Litz wire consists of multiple enamelled copper wires twisted together, covered with an insulating film, reducing the skin effect. Applications include electric automobiles, medical equipment, renewable energy, aeronautics, and railways.
- Conductor: Enamelled copper wire, available in weldable or non-weldable forms, with Grade 1 or Grade 2 enamel layers.
- Wiring: Conductors are wired in formations (7, 19, 37) with a suitable pitch, depending on the section and working frequency.
- Insulation: Made from textile threads of different materials, chosen based on temperature and usage.
Litz cables are manufactured with threads assembled in the same direction, with a toron pitch of less than 60mm, formed into rectangular or square sections to reduce coiling volume, using materials that allow direct welding without mechanical procedures.
- Driver Losses: Caused by the Joule effect and Foucault currents, increasing ohmic resistance and reducing intensity.
- Capacity Losses: Occur due to the accumulation of electrical energy between conductors with different potentials.
- Thermal Class: H155 (155°C), H180 (180°C), H200 (200°C).
- Varnish: Polyurethane, Polyester, or Polyamide.
- Covering: Nylon, Polyester, Nomex, Kapton, with varying temperature resistances.
Tesorax manufactures according to DIN 46.447 standards, considering the number of wires, type of insulation, and support system. High-frequency cables are defined by the thickness of threads, total number of wires, grouping, and insulator.
- Reduces losses by Joule effect and Foucault currents.
- Allows the use of smaller magnetic cores.
- Provides better quality and easy handling of coil cables.
- Extra-flexible cables allow for core coiling with a low curvature radius.
Includes detailed tables showing the relationship between wire diameter and frequency range, as well as specifications for high-frequency Litz cables according to DIN 46447 standards.
Provides detailed measurements and weights for wires and bars, including wire diameter (Ø) in millimeters, cross-sectional area in square millimeters (mm²), and weight in grams per meter (gr/m).
Outlines admissible intensity for different wire sections, measured in square millimeters (mm²), and corresponding current capacity in amperes (A), valid for an ambient temperature of 35 degrees Celsius and a maximum temperature of 70 degrees Celsius.
Comprehensive list of wire diameters and their corresponding sections and weights, ranging from small diameters like 0.15 mm to larger ones like 35 mm.

Family 1: FLEXIBLE COPPER BRAIDS The actual section is obtained by adding all the sections of each wire that makes up the braid. The apparent section is equal to the section that results from the outer dimensions of the braid and is equal to about 2 times the actual section. Flexibility: it depends mainly on the mechanical strength of the material used as well as its diameter. Generally, electrical applications require annealed, electrolytic, red or tinned copper. Extra flexible: elementary wire with diameters of 0.05 - 0.07mm Semi-flexible: elementary wire with diameters of 0.25 - 0.30mm CHARACTERISTICS...
