Our extensive selection of electrical cables ensures you'll find the right cable for any application, while our professional and experienced team will provide technical expertise and guidance to ensure you get the right cable.
Electrical power cables are used to transmit electricity from one point to another. Depending on their final application, cables can have different configurations and must always comply with national and international regulations.They consist of three main components: one or more copper or aluminum conductors, insulation, which keeps the wires from touching each other and causing a short circuit and an outer sheath that holds everything together.
Choosing the correct type of power cable is essential for your devices' safety and operation. The main factors that must be considered when selecting a power cable are:Working environment- The working environment determines what type of sheath material should be used and how thick it should be, along with considerations about whether an insulating layer should be added between them.Current capacity - The amount of current that the cable can carry. The current capacity is based on the wire size and the allowable operating temperature.Safety- The first thing to consider when choosing the right type of power cable is safety. You must ensure it complies with all local regulations and standards. You also need to make sure that it will not damage your equipment or cause any other kind of harm to anyone who uses it.**Short circuit rating-**The short circuit rating indicates how much current can flow through the wire before it melts down or burns out. The higher this number, the better. This refers to the amount of current that can be safely drawn from the wire without exceeding its temperature limits or causing damage to the insulation material surrounding it.Voltage rating - This refers to how much voltage can pass through the wire without damaging it or causing an electrical fault. Higher voltages require thicker insulation around each wire strand (called "dielectric") to prevent leakage between strands and create an insulating barrier between them.
Mains power cable - These cables are best used in applications where flexibility and durability are important, such as wiring household appliances. They can have a PVC, rubber, or CPE outer sheath with 1 to 5 stranded or solid copper cores.SWA cable - These cables have galvanized steel wire insulation surrounding the cores and braiding for added protection and strength. They're generally used in underground cabling but are suitable for indoor or outdoor installations. Sheath material is either PVC (plastic) or LSZH ("Low Smoke Zero Halogen") - which creates less smoke when burned than standard plastic.Conduit cable- This cable can carry a current and is installed inside a conduit enclosure. It's used in dangerous environments, such as fire, smoke, or chemicals, which might damage machines.Multicore cable. They can be configured with 2 to 20+ cores, and the screening helps reduce external interference while maintaining a high-quality signal.
