Insulation is all
about a nonconductive stuff that offers supreme level of resistance to the flow
of electric current while checking electrical leakage as well as the current of
the wire from getting into contact with other conductors. Insulation sustains
the material integrity of the wire by protecting it from different
environmental threats such as water and heat.
The insulating
materials heavily used to cover copper and other electrical wires can be
categorized as:
§ Thermoplastic
§ Thermoset.
Some of
the most commonly used thermoplastic insulations include the following:
- PVC
(Polyvinyl Chloride)
- PE
(Polyethylene)
- ECTFE
- PVDF
- Nylon
Some
thermoset insulations often used are:
- XLPE
- CPE
- EPR
Insulation on electrical
wires has marking of codes and a specific numbering methodology which tells
about the type of wire, its performance and durability factor associated with
the insulation.
The most common types of wire used in
residential construction include THHN and THWN which are abbreviations of:
- T:
Thermoplastic, a high quality heat-resistant plastic heavily utilised on
different types of wire
- H: Heat-resistant
up to 167 degrees F
- HH:
Heat-resistant up to 194 degrees F
- W:
Moisture-resistant; suitable for damp and wet environments
- N: Nylon-coated
to resist damage from oil and gasoline
