2. Thermoplastic-sheathed cable - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermoplastic-sheathed_cable

   This does not include the uninsulated ground wire. For instance, if the cable lists "12-2 AWG", it means there are two insulated 12-gauge wires (a black and a white wire), plus a ground wire. If the label says "12-3", this cable has four conductors—three 12-gauge insulated wires and a bare copper ground wire. [5]

3. Earthing system - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Earthing_system

   Grounding connectors. Connectors for earthing installation are a means of communication between the various components of the earthing and lightning protection installations (earthing rods, earthing conductors, current leads, busbars, etc.). For high voltage installations, exothermic welding is used for underground connections.

4. Trace heating - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trace_heating

   The heating element is then normally soldered to the exposed conductor wire which creates a small heating circuit; this is then repeated along the length of the cable. There is then an inner jacket which separates the bus wires from the grounding braid. In commercial and industrial cables, an additional outer jacket of rubber or Teflon is ...

5. Shielded cable - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shielded_cable

   The shield should be electrically continuous to maximize effectiveness, including any cable splices. For high frequency signals (above a few megahertz), this extends to connectors and enclosures, also circumferentially: The cable shielding needs to be circumferentially connected to the enclosure, if any, through the connector or cable gland. [1 ...

6. Twisted pair - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Twisted_pair

   S for braided shielding (in outer layer only), and/or; F for foil shielding. U/FTP, F/UTP and F/FTP are used in Cat 6A cables. Shielded Cat 5e, Cat 6/6A, and Cat 8/8.1 cables typically have F/UTP construction, while shielded Cat 7/7 A and Cat 8.2 cables use S/FTP construction. [9] Because the shielding is conductive, it may also serve as a path ...

7. Copper-clad steel - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Copper-clad_steel

   Copper-clad steel (CCS), also known as copper-covered steel or the trademarked name Copperweld is a bi-metallic product, mainly used in the wire industry that combines the high mechanical strength of steel with the conductivity and corrosion resistance of copper. It is mainly used for grounding purposes, line tracing to locate underground ...
