Cable is an electrical device used to transmit electricity or signals. According to their different uses, cables can be divided into various types. In this article, we will categorize cables according to their uses and introduce their characteristics and applications.
Power cables
Power cables are cables used to transmit electricity. Its main features are large conductor cross-section and high voltage level. Power cables are used in a wide range of applications, from household appliances to large-scale power systems need to use power cables. The operation steps are as follows:
1. Determine the voltage level and cross-sectional area of the cable;
2. Selection according to the specifications and requirements of the cable;
3. Carry out the laying and connection of the cable;
4. Carry out the testing and acceptance of the cable.
Communication cables
Communication cables are cables used to transmit signals. Its main features are small conductor cross-section and low voltage level. Communication cables are used in a wide range of applications, from telephone lines to fiber-optic communications require the use of communication cables. The operation steps are as follows:
1. Determine the type and specification of the communication cable;
2. Carry out the laying and connection of the communication cable;
3. Carry out the testing and acceptance of the communication cable.
Control cables
Control cables are cables used to control electrical equipment. Its main characteristics are smaller conductor cross-section, lower voltage level. Control cables are used in a wide range of applications, from household appliances to industrial automation. The steps are as follows:
1. Determine the type and specification of the control cable;
2. Carry out the laying and connection of the control cable;
3. Carry out the testing and acceptance of the control cable.
Fiber optic cable
Fiber optic cable is a kind of cable used to transmit optical signals. Its main feature is the use of optical fiber as a transmission medium, with high speed, large bandwidth, anti-interference and other characteristics. Fiber optic cables are used in a wide range of applications, from communication networks to medical equipment. The operation steps are as follows:
1. Determine the type and specifications of the fiber optic cable;
2. Carry out the laying and connection of the fiber optic cable;
3. Carry out the testing and acceptance of the fiber optic cable.
