From purchasing to use, a complete guide to avoiding pitfalls with copper-core, PVC-insulated wires.
Electrical wiring is often overlooked during home renovations, yet this small wire supplies the power to all your appliances. Choosing the wrong type can lead to serious problems like leaks, short circuits, and even fires. Today, we'll introduce copper-core PVC insulated wire.
Common types include BV wire (copper-core PVC insulated cloth wire) and BVR wire (copper-core PVC insulated flexible wire). From the TV and air conditioner in the living room to the refrigerator and oven in the kitchen, and even the lamps and chargers in the bedroom, almost every corner of your home relies on them. They silently deliver power to every appliance, ensuring our daily lives are protected.
So how should we, as consumers, choose wires and cables? Here are a few tips from a wire and cable manufacturer: First, look at the copper core. High-quality copper cores are purplish-red in color, have a metallic luster, a smooth texture, few impurities, and feel soft to the touch. If the copper core is yellowish, blackish, or rough in texture, it's likely that recycled copper or impure copper was used. This results in poor conductivity, high resistance, and not only wastes electricity but also easily overheats and can cause a fire. Next, check the insulation layer. Good insulation has a dense texture, a smooth surface, and no bubbles or cracks. When gently bent, it has a certain degree of flexibility and won't break easily.
Choosing the right manufacturer and brand is crucial when buying wires. Yuejiaxin Wire & Cable Co., Ltd. has been deeply involved in the cable industry for 26 years, with mature production processes and strict quality control. From raw material procurement to production and processing, and then to finished product testing, every step has strict standards and procedures, ensuring product quality.
Different appliances have different power ratings, and therefore require different wire specifications. When purchasing electrical wires, it's crucial to choose the appropriate specification based on the actual usage scenario. Every step in the selection and use of copper core PVC insulated wires is related to our household electrical safety. From strictly selecting wires with "CCC" certification, excellent appearance, and sufficient dimensions, to choosing the correct specification based on the appliance's power rating during installation, every step is important.
