Do you remember the speed of electricity in copper? Was it 1/2 light speed?


'Speed of electricity' ?

speed?

Graham, I've measured it, and it is about one third. That is it takes 0.3s for me to say 'light' and 1s to say 'electricity'.

At 1/3 he wasn't far off, but I agree that saying that in copper is another matter.

Thanks, Fred.
