Cables and wires

The terms cable and wire are often used interchangeably, although they are not synonymous. The differences result from their construction, purpose and – consequently – prices. When performing electrical installations inside the building, cheaper installation cables are more often used. External installation, on the other hand, is carried out using cables. A cable is a kind of wire, but with a wider application. It is characterized by tight and reinforced insulation, unlike a cable, which may or may not have it. Wires, even if insulated, are used in indoor installations, while cables – thanks to the tight and strong construction – they can also be laid in the ground and water. In the el12 store, you can find cables made for the entire range of applied voltages (they have a cross-section of up to 240 mm2), as well as cables with insulation made of solid materials (built for lower voltages - up to 6 kV). The thickest cables available have a cross-section of 10 mm2 and a maximum voltage of 750 V.
