 Cables
Power cables
Power cables are principally
used for power transmission
and distribution systems
(overhead, underground and
submarine) in the power and
other industries. The main
structural components of
power cables include
conductor, insulation and
sheath.
Control cables
Control cables send signals to
control the functioning of an
equipment and allow
distribution of data or signals
that have low voltage.
Designed specifically for
automation controls, these
cables have a copper
conductor, which is
enveloped in galvanized steel
braid.
Twisted Pair Cable Fiber optic cables Network cable

It is a ubiquitous type of
copper cabling used in
telephone wiring and
local area networks
(LANs).

There are 5 types of utp

cables
cat3,cat4,cat5,cat5e
and cat6.
This type of cable is
The price of 12 core fibre optic cable is
available at Rs18/m
Rs70/ m
Modern fibre cables can contain up to a
thousand fibres in a single cable, with
potential bandwidth in the terabytes per
second.

Instrumentation cables
Instrumentation cables find a
wide variety of applications for
process instrumentation for
measurement, supervision and
control of the process in oil &
gas, power generation and
distribution, auto, chemical and
shielded mining industries. The
tinned copper conductors are
laid up in pair/triad /quad either
overall shielded or individually
and overall
Solar cables
DC solar cables are used as
inter-connection cables for
connecting different
photovoltaic modules in air
or conduit..

 Wires
Wires are conducting materials which are made of copper, aluminum, silver, iron, manganin, and
alloyed metals like nichrome wire, constantan, and German silver wire.-

It is used to conduct power from the point where it is generated to the point where it issued

LETTERING : –
THE LETTERS THHN, THWN, THW
AND XHHN REPRESENT THE MAIN
INSULATION TYPES OF INDIVIDUAL
WIRES. THESE LETTERS DEPICT THE
FOLLOWING NEC REQUIREMENTS:.
• T – Thermoplastic insulation
• H – Heat resistance
• HH – High heat resistance (up to 194°F)
• W – Suitable for wet locations
• N – Nylon coating, resistant to damage
by oil or gas
• X – Synthetic polymer that is flame-
resistant
TYPES OF
WIRES
Triplex Wires : Triplex wires are
usually used in single-phase service
drop conductors, between the
power pole and weather heads.
They are composed of two insulated
aluminum wires wrapped with a
third bare wire which is used as a
common neutral. The neutral is
usually of a smaller gauge and
grounded at both the electric meter
and the transformer.

Main Feeder Wires : Main power feeder wires are the wires
that connect the service weather head to the house. They’re
made with stranded or solid THHN wire and the cable installed
is 25% more than the load required
Though rubber sheathed wires
Is a type of cable which normally
consists of a black outer sheath of
rubber with several conductors
inside. The rubber provides an
abrasion-resistant, corrosion-
resistant, waterproof, protective
covering for an insulated electric
cable

Fiber Glass Wire is used in the devices such instruments
as electric heater, electric motor as well as
high temperature instruments.

Flexible Metal Conduit (FMC)

Flexible metal conduit (FMC) is

typically available in diameters
between 3/8" and 3“.

Standard FMC is recommended in

dry areas where it would be
impractical to install EMT or other
non-flexible conduit, yet where

around the cables, water
drainage, and allowing some
