length (ft) – force (lbf = Lb) – time (s) 1 slug = 1 lbs · s2/ft 1 lb per yard = 0,469 kg/m
1 lb per mile = 0,282 kg/m
in the english absolute system: English absolute system:
length (ft) – mass (lb) – time (s) 1 pound = 1 lb Density
1 lb/ft3 = 16,02 kg/m3
1 slug = 32,174 lb, mit 32,174 ft/s2
Length dimensions as the standard value of acceleration due to gravity Weight (specific weight)

T17: Copper calculation

The copper price


In Germany and some other countries, copper cables, -leads and piece-goods containing copper may sold
at daily copper prices (DEL). The DEL is the Stock Exchange Quotation for German electrolytic copper con-
ducting purpose, i.e. 99,5% pure copper. The DEL is expressed in Euro per 100kg. It appears in the com-
mercial section of the daily papers under the heading „Commodity Markets“.Example: DEL 198,89 means:
100kg copper (Cu) cost 198,89 Euro. A 1% delivery charge is added to the daily quotation for cables, leads
and piece-goods.

The copper basis


In the list price of many cables, almost all leads and piece-goods, a proportion of the copper price is
already included.It is also expressed in Euro per kg.
— Euro 150,-/100 kg for almost every flexible cable and leads (e.g. ÖLFLEX® CLASSIC 100) and piece-
goods (e.g. SPIREX® 540P)
— Euro 100,-/100 kg for telephone cables and -cords (e.g. J -Y(St)Y)
— Euro 0;-/100 kg for cables (e.g. NYY,NYCY, NYCWY), an exclusive copper cost pricing.

The copper index


The copper index (copper number) is the calculated copper weight (kg) of a cable per lengts (km) of a cable
or lead, for piece-goods per (1000) piece(s) and is indicated for each catalogue article.

Example I. How to calculate the copper price supplement for cables:


Flexible cable ÖLFLEX® CLASSIC 100, 3G1,5mm2. U. I. Lapp P.N. 0010 064
Copper index per catalogue: 43kg/km, Copper base per catalogue: 150,- Euro/100 kg
Therefore the calucated copper weight is 43 kg per 1 km.
(DEL +1% delivery charge) – copper basis
Copper index (kg/km) x = copper supplement cost in Euro/km
100
ÖLFLEX® CLASSIC 110, 3G1,5mm2. DEL: 198,89 Euro/100 kg. Cu base 150,- Euro/100 kg.
Cu index: 43kg/km
(198,89 +1,99) - 150,00
= 43kg/km x = 21,88 Euro/km
100
In the case of a DEL -quotation of 198,89 Euro/100 kg, the additional copper price supplement is 21,88
Euro/km for ÖLFLEX® CLASSIC 110 3G1,5 mm2.

Example II. How to calculate the copper price supplement for piece-goods:
SPIREX® Spiral cables 540P 3G1,5 mm2. Spiral lengts (extended): 5000 mm; U. I. Lapp P.N. 7322 0150
Copper index per catalogue: 605,5 kg/1000 pcs. Copper base per catalogue: 150,- Euro/100 kg
Therefore the calucated copper weight is 605,5 kg/1000 pcs. = 0,605 kg/piece.
(DEL +1% delivery charge) – copper basis
= Copper index (kg/1000 pcs.) x = copper supplement in
100 Euro/1000 pcs.
(198,89 + 1,99) – 150,00
= 605,5 kg/1000 pcs. x = 308,08 Euro/1000 pcs = 0,308 Euro/piece
100

Price including copper:


Copper price supplement is accounted separately at the invoice.
Your net price ( without tax) is calculated as follows: Catalogue/(gross-) price minus your discount (%) +
copper supplement.
