Introduction
CuNi2 resistance alloy is a kind of copper nickel binary alloy. It has low temperature coefficient of resistance and its maximum operating temperature is 250°C. This alloy is mainly used for manufacturing low voltage circuit breaker, low temperature electric blanket, thermal cutout and other low voltage electrical devices. And it is also used to manufacture heating cable for home electric blanket.
