Decorative Fabric Electric Cable 5m blue 2x0.75mm

The insulating or insulating tape is a fundamental element when making a repair or performing an electrical installation. The insulating tape will help us to protect and insulate the electrical cables from possible crossings or contacts between them or with other elements, guaranteeing that the connection is well insulated avoiding possible short circuits.
Its use is very simple, since being a flexible material allows us to apply it with comfort.
To achieve a perfect union, it is recommended that we wrap the tape covering half the cable and half over the joint, stretching the tape slightly while rolling obliquely.

• For the ground wire, colored insulation tape will be used:
• Green.
• Green with a yellow line.
• For the neutral cable, blue insulating tape will be used.
• For the cable the phase isYou can use any other color:
• Any color different from neutral or earth.
• Black insulating tape.
• Brown insulating tape.
• Gray insulating tape.

PVC (Polyvinyl chloride) is extracted from the polymerization of vinyl chloride monomer. We can classify PVC into two large groups, rigid PVC and flexible PVC.

Rigid: used for the construction of tubes, pipes, containers, tool accessories, parts of parts, blinds, windows, etc.
Flexible: Corrugated tube, traffic signs as cones. irrigation hoses, curtains for refrigerators, footwear, medicine, etc.

This material begins to soften at 80 ° C and melt at 140 ° C. Thanks to these and other properties, PVC is a recyclable material.

Among the main characteristics of PVC we find:

• Different degree of hardness.
• Waterproof.
• It does not corrode.
• It is moldable if it is subjected to high temperatures.
• Good electrical insulator.
• It is a very resistant material.
• Stable and inert.
• Good mechanical and impact resistance.
• High resistance to abrasion.
• Strong and lightweight.
• Good thermal insulation.
• It is odorless, tasteless and harmless.

When carrying out an electrical installation or electrical circuit several factors must be taken into account, one of them is the selection of the appropriate cable. According to the installation and the use of the same we can find different diameters that support different loads. The cable section will also help us not to overheat our installation, since the larger the section, the greater the thermal resistance.
In the following table poWe can see the corresponding load supported for the different sections of cables.

As it is common in installations we can find a standard of colors in the electric cables.

These regulations help at a glance to understand the connection and the resolution of possible faults or failures.

Below we attach the color/cable relation for electrical installations.

1. The ground wire can be identified in several ways:
• Green cable.
• C cablegreen smell with a yellow line.
• Cable without insulation.
2. The neutral wire will be blue.
3. The phase cable can be identified in several ways:
• Any color different from neutral or earth.
• Black insulation.
• Brown isolate.
• Gray insulation.

Within the different types of electrical cables we can find single or multifilament cables. The difference lies in the number of conductors that make up the cable. Single wire cables contain only a single conductive wire, whereas multi-wire cables contain more than one wire. Do not confuse multifile (A) or single wire (B) with monopolar (C), bipolar (D) or multipolar (E) cable. Monopolar cables have only oneSingle conductor, bipolar cables have two conductors, while multi-pole cables have more than two conductors. It may be said that any unipolar, bipolar or multipolar cable can be single-ended or multi-stranded. In the case of single wire cables we will talk about rigid cables, whereas the multifilament cables will be flexible.
In the following table you can see the difference between them.
