No one knows more about THHN electrical wire than a manufacturer or a distributor dealing with it everyday. As a wire and cable distributor WesBell Electronics chooses to research and understand how and why copper does what it does. We will not be able to tell the future but we can adjust for when copper pricing is on the up rise.

We sell electrical wire and cable along with hook up wire, THHN, welding cable and portable cord products to service all of our customers needs. On our electrical wire website we also offer our products at no minimum. You can come to our website and buy 1 foot of THHN wire if that's what you need. We have gotten very good feedback on our "cut to length" THHN electrical wire because electrical contractors can buy their wire per job and limit waste.
We also offer Free Shipping on orders over $250 so that you don't have to worry about finding the best rate for a trucking company to bring the wire or cable to your door.

Copper has gone from about 2.50/lb to 3.50/lb over the last 4-5 months. That will significantly increase the amount you pay for wire and cable. The weight of wire comes from the amount of copper while the amount of copper depends on the awg size of the wire. So the bigger the wire, the heavier it is, and the more expensive it is to buy. Manufacturers have automatic multipliers to increase their pricing as soon as copper increases so that all of their pricing stays right in line with copper.
Please call us if you have any questions about copper or how it affects the price of all copper wire and cable. You can also call with questions about your application and what type of wire might be the best fit for you. (800) 334-8400
