Shedding Light on the Importance of Insulation of Wires and Cables

Electricity can be considered a kitchen knife. If you use it prudently, it can help you make so many delicacies but if you make use of it unwisely, it can cut your fingers leading to irreparable harm. Electricity flows through everything that is a conductor, and it should come to you as a surprise that human beings are good conductors. This is exactly where the concept of wire and cable insulation is carried out with the help of an insulation machine for DATA cables.  

Some major types of wire and cable insulations 

Today, there are a large number of varieties available for wire and cable insulation as per the nature of the application of the wire. Insulation is an important non-conductive material that is widely used to surround and safeguard the wires. Some wire insulation materials are also produced keeping in view electrical resistance.

Some major types of wire insulations for which the machines are provided by the leading EVA EPDM cables extrusionmachine manufacturer include the following:

 

●        Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC) 

●        Semi-Rigid PVC (SR-PVC)

●        Plenum Polyvinyl Chloride (Plenum PVC)

●        Polyethylene (PE) 

●        Polypropylene (PP)

●        Polyurethane (PUR)

●        Chlorinated Polyethylene (CPE)

●        Nylon.

Depending upon the nature of the application, the methodology and materials for insulation are chosen and the primary functions of all of them are to:

 

●        Prevent current from flowing with other conductors

●        Resist electrical leakage

●        Offer protection from all environmental conditions. 

For better insulation, a state-of-the-art and fully computer-controlled setup is required. For instance, insulating data cables is one of the most complicated processes because current travels through them in the form of radiofrequency. You need an extremely sophisticated insulation machine for DATA Cables to carry out the operations successfully. The better the insulation, the better the cable would be.
