GLOSSARY

Copper surcharge

Transformers with copper windings are usually sold with a copper surcharge (calculated on the copper input weight). The copper surcharge is based on the daily copper price on the stock exchange. In addition to the current copper price, a 3% surcharge for transportation and storage costs and a 7% processing surcharge are added to the copper exchange price.
