Is the wire cable a power cable?


In daily life, most people do not know much about the difference between wires and cables. In fact, there are still some differences between the two.

Power cable: The cable drawn from the power supply (should belong to the power cable) should be a kind of wire and cable. (Like high-voltage cables, low-voltage cables are a type of wire and cable.)

Wires and cables mainly include bare wires, winding wires, power cables, communication cables and optical cables, and electrical equipment.

Distinguishing between wires and cables

"Wire" and "cable" do not conceptually have strict boundaries. In a narrow sense, it is divided into "wire" and "cable", and is collectively referred to as "cable" in a broad sense. usually think:

(1) A single is called "line"; multiple is called "cable".

(2) The smaller diameter is called "wire"; the larger diameter is called "cable".

(3) The simple structure is called "line"; the complex structure is called "cable".

However, with the expansion of the scope of use, many varieties have "cable in line" and "cable in cable". So there is no need to strictly distinguish.

In daily habits, people call household wires as wires, and power cables as cables for short.
