Which good home decoration wire and wire optional Raiders

With the increase in the standard of living has increased significantly and household appliances, the demand for increasing electricity consumption, the amount of wires increases. Wire is small but significant responsibility, it is the home decoration indispensable basis for building materials, wire and whether the quality of clearance, directly related to the electrical safety of home improvement. Know a lot of fire, electric shock accidents are caused due to the inferior quality of the electrical wiring. Therefore, home decoration, the choice must not be lightly wire effect.

The first step in understanding the optional wire wire tips

Wire for power transmission (magnetic) energy, information and achieve electromagnetic energy conversion wire products. When home decoration, wire is an indispensable decoration materials hidden works. To select the appropriate and high-quality wire products, we first need to know some tips on the wire.

The difference between the wire and cable

Wire circuit for decoration we usually collectively referred to as wire and cable, wire and cable, and there is no strict boundaries. If we must distinguish between words that wire by one or several wires in a soft, wrapped in light, soft sheath; the cable is composed of one or several insulated wires in a bag outside and then wrapped in metal or rubber He made tough outer layer. Decoration in general do not need to use cables, wires would meet the requirements.

Household electric cable Categories

Wire classification varied, according to the intended use can be divided into several types. And compared to other uses household wiring and other wiring projects, its function wire requirements are relatively low. Specifically, the following classification of household wiring.

If you look back a couple of hundred years to the beginnings of cable wire you'll be able to look at the very colorful history of how it began from it's humble beginnings as a telegraph cable in 1795 to the miracles of modern technology today. But first of all, let's look at where it all began and what sort of companies have supported it's growth.

There is a perception that companies either developed the technology themselves, or improved on what was already there. Most individuals, however are astonished to find out that wire-cable's humble beginnings took place as early as the eighteenth century - and even though it was experimental and not readily accessible, scientists were still using it to transmit signals with varying distance success. So what were the defining moments in the history of wire cable? The following is a brief summary of the most notable:

1795 (Don Francisco Salva) - first recorded account of the use of paper as an insulating material - Salva wrapped each wire in paper, coated it with pitch, tied them all together then wrapped the whole cable in more paper to prevent the lateral escape of electricity. The result was the laying of a 26-mile long telegraph cable between Madrid and Aranjuez which actually transmitted signals.

1809 (S.T. Von Sommering) - Sommering was able to transmit signals and messages through a length of one thousand fee of multi core cable - he did this by initially coating each copper wire with gum lac and covering it with a silk-thread, then he bunched the wires together and yet again coated those wires with more gum lac. This system was used to eventually transmit messages up to 10,000 ft between transmitter and receiver.

1832 (Baron Von Schilling's electromagnetic telegraph) - toured the Far East and the Continent for several years from 1832 using a model of the telegraph to demonstrate its capabilities. In 1836, the Russian Emperor Nicholas, comprehending the more practical applications of the telegraph, approved and appointed the commissioning of a line between St Petersberg and Peteroff. It was part submarine cable laid along the bottom of a canal and part above ground with the wires suspended from posts. It was so successful that the Russians planned to lay the first submarine cable along the Gulf of Finland (unfortunately Von Schilling died in 1837 so this didn't occur).

1837 (Cooke and Wheatstone) - received the first patent for the development of insulated wires and cables - Illustrated the process (or system) by digging a trench 2 miles long and burying the cable wires in it. The copper wires were laid in long wooden baulks painted with a preservative tar compound and buried in the trench, which was then filled with pitch. Wheatstone, stationed at Euston, sent a message to Cooke at Camden Town, and was ecstatic when he received an immediate reply.

This was the Age of Invention, and many more exciting developments followed. The work of these tenacious and dedicated engineers and scientists laid the groundwork for the wire cable we use today, and for the success of many who help us apply the benefits of the technology, unheralded and mostly unappreciated.Wire Cable History

These days, power conception by general public and various industries are increasing day by day. To meet the Growing requirements of quality power distribution for industrial and residential use, electricity distribution systems are hurriedly undergoing upgrades. Looking to safety measures and quality of services, converting the overhead line to high quality underground(UG) cables in low tension and high tension electricity distribution networks. power cables are the major component of new generation Power distribution system. Technical requirements for power and control cables are:

a) Armoured copper/ aluminium power and control cables: Extruded PVC sheath inner, single round galvanised steel wire armoured and provided with PVC sheath outer. Both outer and inner sheaths shall be ST-1 as per IS: 5831.

b) Unarmoured copper/aluminium power and control cables: extruded PVC sheath inner and provided with PVC sheath outer. Both outer and inner sheaths shall be Type ST-1 as per IS: 5831.

XLPE insulation for cable wires have a higher current carrying capacity, light weight and short circuit rating 250°C as against 160°C for PVC. An excellent electric properties of XLPE are high dielectric strength and very low dielectric losses. Due to water tree growth in XLPE, specially designed insulation materials called WTR-XLPE. WTR-XLPE insulation materials lead to a much longer in-service life for power cables. Inner sheath and outer sheath insulation shall be applied by separate extrusion. Insulation should not be damaged when exposed to the bad weather conditions. There are some of the important factors should consider when buying power cables:

(a) About Manufacturer

(b) Voltage grade

(c) Successive length

(d) Size of cable

(e) International standard Mark

(f) Year of manufacture

Quality cables have high tensile strength and perfect resistance to high temperatures. WTR-XLPE cables work in both moist and dry conditions. Cross linked polyethylene cables have distinct advantages such as lighter weight, better electrical and thermal properties, less maintenance, and easier terminating and jointing procedure etc. Always choose to buy a power cables from International standard system certified cable manufactures. Choosing electric cable for power distribution and house wiring is very difficult. All the cable manufacturing companies and suppliers convince their substandard product to buy. Before selecting the brand, always cross check the quality of the product and its manufacturer's system standard certification. Quality product can only deliver 100% safety with satisfaction. Always cross check about product quality, and its manufactures to buy a cost effective, long reliable service life power cables.

Zhujiang Cable manufactures different kinds of cable wires, welcome to inquire from us!

RF coaxial dielectric insulation cable wires than just play the role of final transmission performance is mainly determined only after the insulation, and therefore the choice of dielectric material and its structure is very important. All important properties, such as attenuation, impedance and return loss, both with large insulated relationship. Insulation of the most important requirements are:

Low relative dielectric constant and dielectric loss angle is small factor, in order to ensure attenuation;

Consistent with the structure, in order to ensure uniform impedance, return loss;

Mechanical properties and stability in order to guarantee a long life;

Waterproof.

Physical high foam insulation can achieve all of the above requirements. With advanced extrusion and injection gas technology and special materials, foaming degree can reach more than 80%, so the performance of the air insulated electrical cables closer. Gas injection method, nitrogen gas is injected directly into the dielectric material within the extruder, the process is also known as physical foaming methods. As opposed to this method of chemical foaming, the foaming degree can only reach about 50%, the dielectric loss is large. Gas Injection foamed structure consistent method by means uniform impedance, return loss.

Our RF cable insulating material due to dielectric loss angle is small, the foaming degree and has very good electrical properties. Foam dielectric properties is more important at high frequencies, it is this special foam structure determines the very low attenuation performance in high frequency cable.

Unique multi-layer insulation (thin layer - foamed layer - outside TLC) coextrusion process can be uniformly closed foamed structure, with stable mechanical properties, high strength and good moisture performance characteristics. For the cable in a wet environment remains very good electrical properties, we specifically designed a cable: the outer surface of foam insulation layer plus a thin layer of solid core PE. This outer thin layer can prevent moisture intrusion from the start of production on the protection of cable electrical performance, this design is especially important for the opening of the outer conductor leaky cable. In addition, the insulating layer is formed by a thin layer of tightly wrapped within the inner conductor, and further improve the mechanical stability of the cable. Moreover, the thin layer contains a special stabilizer that ensures compatibility and copper, but also ensures the long-term life of our cables. Within the appropriate choice of sheet material, you can achieve satisfactory performance, such as: moisture, bonding and stability.

This multilayer insulation design (thin layer - foamed layer - outside TLC) can be obtained at the same time excellent electrical performance and stability of the mechanical properties, thereby improving the long-term life and reliability of our RF cable.

The most common outdoor cable jacket material is black linear low density polyethylene, which is similar to the density of the LDPE, HDPE power cable, but with considerable strength. On the contrary, in some cases, we tend to use HDPE, it can provide better mechanical properties and performance of abrasion, chemical, moisture and different environmental conditions for the jacket.

UV-resistant black HDPE to withstand climatic stresses such as high temperatures and strong UV-induced. When emphasize fire safety cables should be used when halogen flame retardant materials. In the leaky cable in order to reduce the spread of fire, may be used between the outer conductor and jacket with fire retardant, so easily melted insulating layer remains within the cable.

The most important electrical properties of the electric cable is low attenuation, impedance uniformity, high return loss, the leakage cable also very key point is its best coupling loss. The main effect of the cable is a transmission signal, therefore, should the cable structure and materials to ensure cable throughout deadline has good transmission characteristics, it is very important. Here follow the Hong Kong Asian senior cable engineers to learn to master the professional knowledge.

1, The inner conductor

Copper is the main material of the inner conductor, it may be the following forms: annealed copper, annealed brass, copper clad aluminum wire. Typically, a small cable conductor is copper or copper-clad aluminum, brass and large cable to reduce cable weight and cost. Large cable outer conductor corrugations, so get good enough bend performance.

A great influence on the inner conductor signal transmission, because the inner conductor attenuation is mainly caused by resistive losses. Conductivity, especially surface conductivity, should be as high as possible, generally require a 58MS / m (+ 20 ℃), because at high frequencies, the current only in a thin layer of the transmission conductor surface, a phenomenon known as the effective thickness of the skin effect, the current layer is called the skin depth. Quality copper inner conductor with the demanding requirements of copper should be no impurities, the surface clean, flat and smooth. Conductor diameter should be stable and within narrow tolerances. Any changes will reduce the diameter of a uniform impedance and return loss, and should therefore be precisely controlled manufacturing process.

2, The outer conductor

The outer conductor of cable wires has two basic functions: the first is the role of the loop conductor, and the second from the shielding effect. Leaky cable outer conductor also determines its leakage performance. The outer conductor of the coaxial feeder cable and the cable is super soft embossed brass welded together, the outer conductor of these cables completely closed, allowed cable have any radiation.

Portrait of the outer conductor is usually made by a copper cladding. The outer conductor layer, has opened a longitudinal or transverse notches or holes.

Slotted outer conductor cables in emboss more common. Along the axial direction of the roll ripple peaks are formed equidistant cutting slot. Part of a small proportion of slashing and slot spacing is much smaller than the electromagnetic wavelength transmission.

Clearly, the non-leaky cable processing can be made by the following method leaky cable: 120-degree angle on the non-leakage type cable commonly common cable outer conductor wrinkles peak cutting, to obtain a suitable slot structure. Leaky cable shape, width and slot structure determines its performance.

The outer conductor of copper should be of good quality, high conductivity, no impurities. Outer conductor size should be strictly controlled within the tolerance range, in order to ensure uniform characteristic impedance and high return loss.

Buying power cables and wires can be quite a difficult task, if we do not possess much knowledge about them. Using improper cables for power transmission can prove injurious to life and property, as they always bear a risk of power leakage and short circuits. Although there exists a wide range of electrical cables in the market, choosing a quality brand often becomes a tedious task when the market is filled with substandard duplicate wires. The first thing people need to check before purchasing wires or cables, is the reputation of the brand that they choose. A brand which has continuously maintained its reputation is more likely to produce quality cables over others.

The brands that are maintaining a steady growth and reputation, ever since their inception have concentrated on using advanced technologies, they have revolutionized the wiring industry by producing quality cables and wires that aid in effective transmission of electricity and signals. The major factor which distinguishes reputed brands from ordinary power cable brands are, their construction and production. Cables are created as per the international wiring standards, these cables bear a safety shield, which prevents electricity leakage and curbs short circuits. The latest innovation which has made them more competitive in the wiring and cable industry is known as Triguard technology.

Emphasizing on saving electricity and enhanced security, the Triguard technology concentrates on increasing the efficiency of the wires, with its uniform power distribution mechanism. The wires maintain a steady flow of electricity which allows superior performance, even during energy fluctuations. Saving a whopping 25% of energy, these electrical cables also prevent electrocution, and its fool-proof construction is designed to reduce the chances of short-circuits. Comparatively lighter in weight than other ordinary brands, these wires are durable and function efficiently even after prolonged use. As the wires are stringently checked by the experts at their individual labs before dispatch, the brand ensures that the cable would function efficiently without compromising on performance.

However, as with all cables, these cables need to be maintained as per the guidelines, for a longer life. Rigid handling and subjecting these cables to harsh conditions, which may not be suitable to its functioning, will subsequently hamper their life span. Hence, it is necessary that various safety measures and maintenance techniques are followed to enhance the durability quotient of these cables.

Efficient for house electric cable solutions, these cables are also extensively used in various industrial and mechanical applications. Moreover, with its competitive pricing, these cables are also pretty reasonable, which makes the cables affordable for one and all.

There are a variety of ways to pull electric cable through a conduit or raceway. Manual pulling works best for short distances (of 50 feet or less) and thinner cables (American Wire Gauge No.6 or less). Cable pulling equipment is better for thicker wire and longer distances.

Manual Cable Pulling:

Fish tape is the most commonly used tool for manually pulling cables and wire. Fish tape consists of several feet of springy steel, usually 1/4 to 1/8 inch thick. The end of this steel forms a loop, or eye, through which wire or cables are attached. On the opposite end is a handle used for gripping and pulling.

Attach wire to the end of the fish tape by looping it through the eye. Then tape the wire back on itself to secure. Pull gently but firmly on the handle to pull the wire through a conduit. This is usually a two person job -- one to attach the wire, one to pull on the handle. Use lubricant on heavy wires as they enter the wireway for a smooth, easy pull.

Another method of manual pulling involves the use of a vacuum and string. First, feed a little bit of light string into one end of the pipe. Then set up your vacuum cleaner on the other end of the conduit. Use the vacuum cleaner to pull the string through the pipe. Next, attach a heavier string or rope to the light string and pull it through. Finally, attach your wire or cable to the heavier string and pull it through manually. This method can easily be a one person job. Hand winches are capable of pulling several hundred pounds. They can be used as a labor saving device with heavier power cable.

Cable wires are made of several twisted wire put together to provide a sturdy and durable rope in lifting heavy equipments and also as a source of electric conductor that produce high voltage. Wire ropes are commonly used by electric companies, construction companies and even companies who manufacture heavy equipment.

Types

There are several kinds of cable wires available in the market however; you can always find the two types of rope core, fiber and steel. Fiber core presents more flexible and softer surface enabling easy bending while steel core presents hard, durable and sturdy structure that is well used on heavy construction. Rope with cables that have this different type of core can be used on separate and single hauling.

Parts

They should consist of the center which is made of steel rope cable followed by the strand, the strand should fully cover the center and can either be an electricity conductor or not. Next level should be the core and lastly the rope itself. The combinations used in attaching strands and other specifications should depend on how and where you will use the wire rope cable.

Features

The invention of this type of rope has been developed since the early days to provide easier and more convenient way of lifting and hauling heavy materials. Rope cables extend a more expensive yet quality packed item in the market because of their heavy duty quality. They are made of several strands of heavy duty metal that guarantee to withstand the test of time and extreme force.

Uses

Cables are widely used as highway fences, hauling purposes and sometimes a conductor of electricity. There are other various uses of this type of cable not to mention the few advantages it can give you. Your wire rope cable's main purpose is to extend usability on heavy jobs and strenuous construction. Aviation and engineering ropes as well as simple suspensions requires the use of this type of power cable.

Maintenance

Lubricating the wire will help extend its life by minimizing rust and friction that can cause torn and overused wires. If your wire consists of small and thin strands, you will notice several breakages over time. Oils that are used in lubricating the wire can differ depending on the size and kind of wire as well as its impact on human skin. Proper maintenance can make these cables last for a long time.

The terms cables and wires in this report are used interchangeably. For instance, power cable refer to the physical structure that is used to conduct electrical current and telecommunications signal/payload. The term cable should thus be distinguished from the same term used in context of the cable television industry, for instance.

Cables and wires are the most commonplace indicators of a wide range of technologies existing in various stages of sophistication. As in other fields, military wires primarily serve two purposes: transmission of power and transmission of telecommunications payloads and signals. These two broad usages span a wide array of applications and industries. Consequently cables and wires comprise a formidable market on their own.

The underlying operating principle has remained consistent over the years and is fairly uncomplicated with regards to cables super flexible wires serving as conduits to connect high-tech islands. This simplicity in technology does not rub off on its market dynamics. The result of this simplicity is a large number of significant stakeholders. Additionally, these diverse stakeholders are very sensitive to macroeconomic trends on the global scale.

The raw material costs on the supply side explain much of the volatility in the cable market. As a result, the pricing trends of cables and wires are not entirely driven by market demand. The market is also far from being homogenous, with the end user profiles ranging from wholesale purchasers, telecom operators, retail users, utility managers, power supply companies as well as enterprises. The leverage enjoyed by the buyers is by and large proportional to their purchase volumes and inversely proportional to the importance of cables and wires to their applications.

There is flexible wire and there is super flexible wire. electric cable is usually used in the military and medical markets. When buying super flexible wire, it is important that it has a long flex life and a high flexure index level. Basically, it should be able to be stretched far and often. It should also be moisture resistant, abrasion resistant, and deformation resistant. Companies like Asian Cable provide super flexible wire with all the properties needed in high strength applications such as critical life support monitoring, sensor leads and continuous flexing in computer peripheral equipment. One can contact a custom cable company to find out what kind of cable is best for the required applications.

If you are about to purchase copper wire for the first time, or even if you have purchased it in the past, you may find the task daunting. After all, most distributors stock thousands of wire and cable products. Your application may require ribbon cable, but which specific ribbon cable should you buy? Having choices is important, but with so many choices, decision-making can become overwhelming.

Do you know what questions to ask? Before beginning a search, equip yourself with the right knowledge. Background information combined with basic preparation can give you some command during the buying process. In the article, “Specifying High-Performance Cables: The Devil Is In The Details, ” by Alpha Wire Company, they evaluate four main issues to be considered. These are cable shielding, flexibility, chemical resistance, and temperature range.

Shielding

When purchasing power cable, be sure to explore cable shielding. Shielding ensures that the electrical process runs smoothly. An engineer will tell you shielding minimizes problems of signal exit or entrance caused by interference. Types offered include braid, foil, spiral, or a combination braid/foil shield. Each type has advantages and disadvantages:

Foil Shields:

Uses: CATV, MATV, Video, computer I/O cables

Advantages: 100% cable coverage, low weight and low cost

Disadvantages: High DC resistance and lower mechanical strength

Braid Shields:

Uses: Computers to terminate interconnect for process or control applications

Advantages: Great structural integrity, flexibility and flex life

Disadvantages :Does not provide full coverage, heavy

Spiral Shield:

Uses: Microphone, audio cables and retractile cords

Advantages: Great flexibility and flex life

Disadvantages: Not effective above audio frequency range

Combination Shields: Uses: Video, CATV, MATV, networking, computer I/O cables Advantages: 100% foil coverage, strong and low resistance Disadvantages: Higher cost than other shields Chemical Resistance

An engineer will tell you that electrical cables possess various levels of chemical resistance, but there may be more to it. You should know which chemicals could present a potential problem in the entire lifespan of your cable. Also, consider that oils and corrosive chemical vapors or liquids could potentially enter into the cable connections. Any type of chemical intrusion could lead to cable failure. You might need to add additional sealing to prevent moisture permeation.

Temperature

Temperature range is another essential factor in the mix of things. What temperatures will your cable need to withstand to be effective? You may find that a cable possesses all the necessary electrical features required for extreme temperatures, but will it be able to adapt to the physical demands associated with that temperature?

Flexibility & Flex

A flexible cable can make installation and troubleshooting much easier. However, did you know that “flexing” is a different issue that needs to be addressed? Due to the nature of many manufacturing applications, cables may encounter constant flexing. Particular cables are built better for this than others.

Conclusion

There is more to finding the ideal cable than meets the eye. Don’t be intimidated by choices. A cable exists for just about every environment and application if you know what to look for. Spend some time asking the right questions and consider every angle.

We never focused too much on the power cable around us, did we? Obviously, we have had to look at so many other elements that we forget to consider the importance of cables and wires. What we have to understand, though, is the fact that these cables as well as wires can change our lives. Improper wiring in our homes or offices can lead to major disasters. However, knowledge of other types of wires and cables can make sure that we employ various safety measures at the time when you are close to such cables or wires in a public area.

High Voltage Cable: Let us first speak about high voltage cable. As the name suggests, this is a cable that is used for the transmission of electric power at high voltage. There are various elements of this cable, and it is a complicated system. You might often see such cables over open grounds. This is because such high voltage cable can be extremely dangerous, and all necessary steps need to be taken to ensure that there is no contact of this cable with any other object as well as individuals. We have all read about instances in the past when kids have had to face severe problems because of getting in touch with such cables. We should all make sure that we stay away from these cables. Any contact with the cable can be life threatening.

FireProof Cable: These are also known as fire-resistant cables. The name is self-explanatory. These are cables that can perform optimally even in the case of fire. This is used when electricity is being supplied to emergency services. This is because even when there if fire, these cables will make sure that electricity is continuously being transmitted. It also protects the health of all people. This is because in the case of fire, it does not emit any toxic substances or even corrosive gases. This is the unique quality of these kinds of cables.

There are many other types of cables around as well. Optical Fiber Cable is one innovation that is becoming renowned with every passing day. It improves communication and offers high internet speeds. Various processes also punctuate the industry. Take the example of cable ARP filtering. It is an extremely important element of the industry, and is used very often in different industries.

In short, cable wires have to play a significant role in our personal and professional lives. Hence, we should strive to gain more knowledge and information about the same.

Electric cable form a major part of our busy lives and we engulf ourselves in all kinds of cables and wires most of the time. It is, hence, important that cable wire management takes center stage as we get into more and more applications that are based on cables and wires. Producers of cables and wires as well as producers of electrical equipment as well as electronic stuff that would have cables and wires to manage depend on simple locking ties that are extensively used for getting the cables and wires in order. Fortunately, cable wire management is not as tough as it sounds, considering the whole range of ties, clamps and conduits that are specifically designed to get your wire house in order. And it does make a good impression and account for a professional image if your cable wire management is up to the mark, making use of the right kind of gadgets for the right purposes.

The subject of cable wire management should perhaps be starting with nylon locking ties, available in black and natural colors and in compliance with MS-3367, MIL-S-23190E and RoHS. Then, there are the standard releasable ties that remain locked and in place until they are deliberately released. If you are looking for power cable management with a temporary purpose and you are interested in bringing about future changes to the cables and wires that have been bundled, you might want to consider these standard releasable ties that are RoHS compliant. If you are interested in something more professional and for a longer term than the short term ones, you may want to see how screw mount cable ties may figure into your overall scheme of things in cable wire management.

As you would imagine, cable wire management is not all about ties of different strengths and structures alone. If you are looking for something that is heavyweight, you might want to take a serious look at the professional looking serious contender in the series, the self adhesive cable clamps. The point to note in this case is that they are fixed diameter clamps, ones that could be mounted with the backing of adhesive tapes or with the aid of a screw mounting hole. And finally, cable wire management could not be complete without a mention of cable tie guns, which work for UL non-metallic air ducts and connectors, coming in handy for its application with the R-6 and R-8 flex duct.

Flexible wire in terms of how limp it is starts with the wire design options. The choices you make can greatly impact how flexible the wire or cable will be. The right choices can make the difference between flexible wire and a flexible copper cable. Designing a flexible wire or flexible cable begins with the design. We start at the core, conductor stranding and construction.

1. Conductor stranding: Conductors are made up of fine strands of wire assembled together into several configurations. The more strands in the construction, the more flexible and resistant to repetitive flexing the conductor will be. Conductor stranding options range from a solid strand (one strand) to over a thousand strands depending on the wire gauge. The construction of conductor stranding is important as well. Stranded conductors can be manufactured in a variety of configurations, the most common being concentric (true concentric, equilay concentric, unidirectional concentric, and unilay concentric), bunched and rope.

Conductor stranding with rope construction makes for a more flexible wire. This construction has the advantage of increasing flexibility by using a larger number of finer strands while maintaining a tighter diameter tolerance than a simple bunched construction. Ropes are more evident in the larger AWG sizes, such as 8 AWG and larger, but there are also many applications that require the flexibility of rope constructions in the smaller gauges. Constructions vary and can contain hundreds or thousands of strands. To achieve the most flexible wire design, be sure to use the higher stranded conductors. For flexible wire with repetitive flexing applications, consider using an alloy for fatigue resistance.

2.Insulation: Flexible wire and cable requires a flexible insulation material. There are many choices for insulating materials. The most flexible wire insulation is silicone, together with the right conductor stranding can be as limp as a wet noodle. While silicone is the most flexible wire insulator, it does have poor abrasion resistance. Choosing the right material will depend on your application and use, consult your wire and cable manufacturer to determine which material will work best for your application. Flexible insulation and jacket materials include TPE/TPR, polyurethane and even PVC for increased flexibility. When choosing an insulation or jacket material, consider your requirements. Is your application requiring sterilization? Is abrasion resistance required? Temperature, chemical contact and bio-compatibility are other requirements to consider.

3.Cable construction: Cable construction is another component for flexible cables. Cable lay length and shielding can increase the cable's flexibility. The cable lay is how the conductors are cabled together, the wires can run parallel or be twisted around each other. The length between each twist can be adjusted for maximum cable flexibility. Shield options include spiral, braid and Mylar or foil wrap. The application is important when considering shield types. For flexible cables which undergo repetitive flexing, spiral and foil type shield are not good options as the shield coverage will be compromised over time.

Any questions about cable wires can be inquire from us!

When two or more wires are twisted or bonded together and covered with a sheath, it is known as a cable wire. It is used for various purposes in different fields all over the world. There are different types of electric cables used for various purposes.

The Different Uses of Cable Wire

Cable wire is used for carrying electrical current to homes and industries. This is one of the most important uses of these wires. It is installed in buildings and industrial areas for transmitting power to far distances. Such wires are known as power cables and high voltage cables.

Large wires are produced by braiding together several small wires which makes the electrical cable wire more flexible. These wires can be fastened by using cable ties, cable trays and so forth.

There are various types of electrical cables which include Ribbon, Coaxial, Twinax, Shielded, Twisted, Single, Multicore, Flexible, metallic and non metallic sheathed cables.

Cable wire is basically divided into four types which include the Multi conductor, fiber optics, twisted pair and the coaxial cables. The coaxial cable includes two conductors with different signals. The configuration found on the coaxial is an unbalanced line.

The power cable wire which contains a number of insulated conductors is known as Multi conductor. The twisted pair wires are designed for carrying signals as it includes different pairs of conductors that are twisted together.

The fiber optical wire has a number of uses such as wiring, networking, data transmission and so forth. The use of these cables for data transmission is quite popular as it ensures accuracy and speed. There is minimal amount of data loss when it is transmitted through the fiber optical wires.

These wires are also used in medical fields in imaging tools and light guides. As the light emitted through these wires seldom requires a straight path to shine on the objects, it is widely preferred by doctors and medical staff.

Another popular and wide usage of these wires is in the field of computers. It is used for computer networking as it has a high flexibility, increased bandwidth, accuracy and speed. These wires are also used as interconnect wires, distribution wires, trunk wires, standard patch cords and so forth.

The fiber optical wires are also used for detecting temperature, vibration and pressure. It is an excellent sensory device. Cable wire is also used for wiring aircrafts, submarines and other complex wiring jobs.
