Mike> Litz wire usually has each strand insulated from the Mike> others, is your wire the same, Geri?< Geri> ... no, unfortunately not ... seems to be just the name Geri> "Litze" that was adopted from the "Litz" wire ... but as Geri> I said .. still does the job at LF! english;german;type and makeup of conductor solid wire;Draht;single conductor either uninsulated or covered by an insulating sleeve. stranded wire;Litze;a number of individual solid wires are woven in spiral orientation, individual wires are in electrical contact to each other, an insulating sleeve covers the whole strand. litz-wire;HF-Litze;a number of individual solid wires, each having its own insulation are inter-woven in a manner very much different from the scheeme of stranded wire. An additional sleeve covers the wires collectively. Geri made up his Loading coil of stranded wire - i.e. the indivdual wires are in electrical contact with each other, one insulating sleeve covers the whole strand. Hope this helps. 72 de Gamal
