  2. Cambric - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cambric

    Cambric is a finely woven cloth with a plain weave and a smooth surface appearance, the result of the calendering process. It may be made of linen or cotton. The fabric may be dyed any of many colours. [8] Batiste is a kind of cambric; [9] it is "of similar texture, but differently finished, and made of cotton as well as of linen". [10]

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Knob-and-tube_wiring

    The conduit methods were known to be of better quality, but cost significantly more than K&T. [2] In 1909, flexible armored cable cost about twice as much as K&T, and conduit cost about three times the price of K&T. [6] Knob and tube wiring persisted since it allowed owners to wire a building for electricity at lower cost.

  4. Electrical insulation paper - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrical_insulation_paper

    The telephone cables have a large number of conductors that are individually insulated. The paper needs to be thin (30-40 g/m 2). A normal power cable needs more insulation and therefore paper with higher paper density is used, normally 60-190 g/m 2. The paper needs to be strong, elastic, uniform and free of holes or debris.

  5. Insulation system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Insulation_system

    Basic insulation is any material added to protect a user from accidental contact with energized parts. Supplemental insulation is rated to withstand 1500 volts AC. Double insulation is a design concept where failure of one insulation system will not expose the user to a shock hazard due to the presence of a second independent layer of insulation.

  6. Electrical tape - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrical_tape

    In the early 1940s, vinyl plastic emerged as a versatile material for a wide range of applications, from shower curtains to cable insulation. A major ingredient in vinyl film was tricresyl phosphate (TCP), which was used as a plasticizer. Unfortunately, TCP tended to migrate, giving the surface of the vinyl film an oily quality and degrading ...

  7. High-voltage cable - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/High-voltage_cable

    High voltage is defined as any voltage over 1000 volts. [3] Those of 2 to 33 kV are usually called medium voltage cables, those over 50 kV high voltage cables.. Modern HV cables have a simple design consisting of a few parts: the conductor, the conductor shield, the insulation, the insulation shield, the metallic shield, and the jacket.

  8. Insulator (electricity) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Insulator_(electricity)

    An insulating material used in bulk to wrap electrical cables or other equipment is called insulation. The term insulator is also used more specifically to refer to insulating supports used to attach electric power distribution or transmission lines to utility poles and transmission towers. They support the weight of the suspended wires without ...

  9. IDC (electrical connector) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IDC_(electrical_connector)

    An insulation-displacement contact (IDC), also known as insulation-piercing contact (IPC), is an electrical connector designed to be connected to the conductor(s) of an insulated cable by a connection process which forces a selectively sharpened blade or blades through the insulation, bypassing the need to strip the conductors of insulation ...
