Electrical cable scrap value

I roughly worked this out today



100 metres of 3 core unwrapped weighs 7.6kg.

A metre weighs 0.07.6kg

1000 grams in a kg

A metre weighs 76grams

£1.10 per kg is 0.0010p per gram

£1.50 per kg is 0.0015p per gram.

A metre (£1.10) is worth 0.076p

A metre (£1.50) is worth 0.114p.

100 metres is worth £11.40 (£1.50 rate) at the scrapyard.
