Should the fact that the CCS is made up of two dis-similar metals create any potential corrosion concerns?
An electrolyte needs to be present for galvanic corrosion to occur. Galvanic corrosion will take place if the two metals are exposed to oxygen / moisture. This only happens on CCS at the cut ends of the wire. The bond that is created between copper and steel through pressure and heat is a metallurgical bond. This manufacturing process produces a wire that performs as one metal, thus inhibiting the presence of an electrolyte.
