Electrical resistivity of an alloy of copper and nickel is more when compared with the electrical resistivity of an alloy of copper, manganese, and nickel. The electrical resistivity of Cu-Ni alloys with increasing temperature rises steeply. At 200°C, the electrical resistivity of Cu-Ni alloy is 49×10-8Ω.m whereas that of copper, manganese, and nickel is49×10-8Ω.m
