Undergrad What is the correct designation for resistivity and its unit for a copper wire?
Thank you. Yes, I know my cross-section value exactly. It is not a stranded wire). I think also the method I mentioned before is correct.- gsairus

Undergrad What is the correct designation for resistivity and its unit for a copper wire?
Thank you for your explanation! So [Ohm/m] - this is a so called "specific resistance (R_{sr})". And if I simply multiply it by cross-section of the material I will obtain the resistivity, expressed by Ohm*m? R_{sr}=\frac{Ohm}{m}=R/L=\rho\frac{L}{S}/L=\rho/S -> \rho=R_{sr}*S R - resistance...- gsairus

Undergrad What is the correct designation for resistivity and its unit for a copper wire?
oh, I am sorry, of course, conductance, not conductivity. Thank you for caching me. I have an exotic material (isolation) in my project and in the documentation it was described by "parameter" {Ohm/m}. Before I could start any estimation/calculation with it I should figure out the resistivity of...- gsairus

Undergrad What is the correct designation for resistivity and its unit for a copper wire?
Exactly! But why people are using S*m!? I met it before only in transmission lines, TL. This unit [Ohm/m or S*m] was called as resistance/conductivity per unit length and is used for description of TL. And I wonder if my idea is correct for transferring unit from [Ohm/m] to Ohm*m?- gsairus

Undergrad What is the correct designation for resistivity and its unit for a copper wire?
Thank you. I'm just meeting often Ohm/m and I am trying to understand the connection between well known conductivity and...it!- gsairus

Undergrad What is the correct designation for resistivity and its unit for a copper wire?
Hello to everyone. I am a little confused regarding what stands for the designation of [Ohm/m]. Before I used to [Ohm*m] for designation of resistivity (it calls sometimes resistance per unit length). For example I have a wire (copper). The resistivity could be found from the table (17.2...- gsairus
