Which Cable Will Suit Your Need?
In the modern days electricity is in high use and
transmission of data is a regular activity. For
this reason wires and cables are rising in
demand. But how to understand which cable or wire
is best suited for your home or business? Or how
to identify the best quality wires and cables
available in the Indian market? Let us check out
some important facts about these products?

Types of wires and cables

• Wires- Also known as conductors, these products
  are used to transmit electricity from one point
  to the other it is also used as an outlet or as
  light.
• Bare Wires- These are non-insulated wires.
• Stranded Wires- These are insulated wires which
  is coated with a plastic coating.
• Solid core wires- These are also insulated wires
  but stiffer than the stranded ones. Solid core
  wires are known to make the best connections.

• Wires are flexible conductors available from 50
  to 500 feet length. As wires can be used both for
  indoor and outdoor activities, it is very
  important to check the rating for the indoor or
  outdoor application and the temperature tolerance
  before buying one. Most of the multi conductor
  wires contain
• Neutral wires- These are white or grey in color
  and are used to return electricity from the end
  device to the power source.
• Hot wires- These are can be of any color except
  green, white and grey. These are used to pass
  electricity from the source to the end device.
• Grounding wires- These are available in green and
  are used for earthing purpose, that is, when
  there is a short circuit this wire transmits the
  excess current to the ground.

2 Cables are either made from copper or from
aluminum some may come with an armor, others may
not. Each cable is different and must be chosen
as per the requirement. Some of the commonly used
cables include

• EHV cables- These are extra high voltage cables
  which are generally used for transmission of high
  voltage electricity, up to 400kV. Insulation is
  very important in case of this kind of cables and
  hence the coating is very thick to ensure that
  minimal amount of micro voids and moisture enters
  the circuits.
• HT cables- These cables are also high voltage
  cables which can carry up to 220kV electricity.
  These high tension cables are used to connect
  heavy duty machinery, for conductor making and
  also for sheathing.

7
LT cables- The low tension power cables are used
to minimize dielectric losses. These cables are
light weight and tough against overloading and
vibrations. Low tension cables are also available
in different variants, like 4 and 3 core power
cables. Control cables- These are generally used
to make permanent connections in machineries, air
conditioners, measuring and control heating.
Control cables are generally made from PVC, which
is halogen free and hence emits low smoke when
exposed to fire. Instrumentation cables- These
cables are made specially to cater to the unique
requirements of microprocessors and computerized
instruments. The cables transmit very low levels
of electricity between the measuring ends and the
display units or controllers.

So whatever many be your requirement, choose
wires and cables manufactures which are properly
insulated and meet the international standards
look for ISO mark on the wires and cables while
making the purchase.
