  2. Underground power line - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Underground_power_line

    Underground cable locations are not always obvious, which can lead to unwary diggers damaging cables or being electrocuted. Operations are more difficult since underground cables' high reactive power produces large charging currents, making voltage control more difficult. Large charging currents arise due to the higher capacitance from ...

  3. Copper conductor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Copper_conductor

    Also, comparatively, more copper wire can fit in a given conduit than conductors with lower conductivities. This greater wire fill is a special advantage when a system is rewired or expanded. [17] Copper building wire is compatible with brass and quality plated screws. The wire provides connections that will not corrode or creep.

  4. Direct-buried cable - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Direct-buried_cable

    Cross-section of direct buried cable. Direct-buried cable (DBC) is a kind of communications or transmissions electrical cable which is especially designed to be buried under the ground without any other cover, sheath, or duct to protect it. [1] Most direct-buried cable is built to specific tolerances to heat, moisture, conductivity, and soil ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrical_wiring

    The first rubber-insulated cables for US building wiring were introduced in 1922 with US patent 1458803, Burley, Harry & Rooney, Henry, "Insulated electric wire", issued 1923-06-12, assigned to Boston Insulated Wire and Cable . These were two or more solid copper electrical wires with rubber insulation, plus woven cotton cloth over each ...

  6. Electrical conduit - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrical_conduit

    Conduit may be installed underground between buildings, structures, or devices to allow installation of power and communication cables. An assembly of these conduits, often called a duct bank, may either be directly buried in earth, or encased in concrete (sometimes with reinforcing rebar to aid against shear forces ).

  7. Armoured cable - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Armoured_cable

    In electrical power distribution, armoured cable usually means steel wire armoured cable (SWA) which is a hard-wearing power cable designed for the supply of mains electricity. It is one of a number of armoured electrical cables – which include 11 kV Cable and 33 kV Cable – and is found in underground systems, power networks and cable ...
