I do not know , the description should tell you .

what material is the wire copper or copper clad aluminum or aluminum?

As far as I can tell it's copper wire , with an aluminum foil shield and has a nickel/tin ground wire interwoven amongst the foil shield . I am using the 16 gage , 2 conductor copper wire with shield and Drain wire . The outer coating is white plenum and is easily cut or stripped . This is the 4th or 5th roll I have used and it has worked fine for me . The insulator on the 2 main conductors is thick , but a bit delicate when it comes to stripping the insulation off the wire . For inside use this wire is fine as best as I can determine . I use it for signal wire and audio applications . The last 50 feet on a 500 ft. roll has a twist in it to alert you to end of the spool is coming up . You have to open the box to unreel the last 50 feet or so . I hope this helps .

Stopping Winter Ice Problems

We have had problems with ice blocking the down spout of the drain system causing water backup and damage. This heat has been installed through the drain to prevent any more problems with ice blockage. It is on a GFCI protected circuit with thermostat so we expect to get many years of service.
