2. Thermoplastic-sheathed cable - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermoplastic-sheathed_cable

   A thermoplastic-sheathed cable (TPS) consists of a toughened outer sheath of polyvinyl chloride (PVC) thermoplastic, covering one or more individual annealed copper conductors, themselves insulated with PVC. This type of wiring is commonly used for residential and light commercial construction in many countries.

3. Multicore cable - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multicore_cable

   The term is normally only used in relation to a cable that has more cores than commonly encountered. [2] Not all cables with multiple insulated conductors are called multicore cables – the core in multicore refers to the number of usable connections made, not the number of conductors or wires.

4. Tri-rated cable - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tri-rated_cable

   BS 6231 is a British Standard, last revised in 2006 by the BSI Group. [4] This standard specifies the performance and construction requirements of electrical cables that are single core, non-sheathed, PVC-insulated and rated 600/1000 V. Wire meeting the requirements of type CK of this standard is used as tri-rated wire.

5. Audio multicore cable - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Audio_multicore_cable

   Multicore cables usually have a thick PVC or cross-linked polyethylene sheath protecting the bundle of individual cables. [20] The PVC sheath is extruded around the inner cables, and solidifies to hold the cables in a tight group. This stops the cables from coming out of their tight braid (a phenomenon known as corkscrewing), [6] and absorbs ...

6. Electrical wiring - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrical_wiring

   Diagram of a simple electrical cable with three insulated conductors, with IEC colour scheme. About 1950, PVC insulation and jackets were introduced, especially for residential wiring. About the same time, single conductors with a thinner PVC insulation and a thin nylon jacket (e.g. US Type THN, THHN, etc.) became common. [citation needed]

7. Mineral-insulated copper-clad cable - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mineral-insulated_copper...

   Mineral-insulated copper-clad cable is a variety of electrical cable made from copper conductors inside a copper sheath, insulated by inorganic magnesium oxide powder. The name is often abbreviated to MICC or MI cable, and colloquially known as pyro (because the original manufacturer and vendor for this product in the UK was a company called ...
