What is armored cable?
Armored cable means adding an additional layer of armor to a regular cable. There are steel strip armor, as well as thin steel wire and thick steel wire armor.
What are the uses of armored cables?
1. Armored cables are generally fixed power cables, which are generally fixed in one place and basically do not move. Power lines transmit electrical energy; 2. The purpose of adding an armor layer to a cable is not only to enhance its tensile strength, compressive strength, and other mechanical protections, but also to extend its service life; 3. Armor has a certain degree of resistance to external forces, and can also prevent rats from biting, so as not to cause power transmission problems through the armor. The bending radius of the armor should be large, and the armor The layer can be grounded to protect the cable.
What is the difference between armored cables and ordinary cables?
1. Armor indicates that the outermost protective layer of the cable is wrapped with steel tape or steel wire to protect the cable from external mechanical forces; And cross-linked cable refers to the insulation layer material outside the cable conductor, which is made of cross-linked polyethylene material. Armored cross-linked polyethylene cables can be used, which are insulated with cross-linked materials and protected by the outer layer of the armor; 2. Armor has a certain degree of resistance to external forces, and can also prevent rats from biting, so as not to cause power transmission problems through the armor. The bending radius of the armor should be large, and the armor layer can be grounded to protect the cable.
