2. Silicone rubber - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Silicone_rubber

   The iron oxide additive adds high thermal conductivity but does not change the high electrical insulation property of the silicone rubber. This type of self-amalgamating tape amalgamates or fuses to itself, so that when stretched and wrapped around cables, electrical joints, hoses, and pipes it bonds into a strong seamless rubbery electrically ...

3. Thermoplastic-sheathed cable - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermoplastic-sheathed_cable

   The earth conductor is always stranded (unlike North American usage), with the exception of 1 mm 2 cables, and covered with green-yellow striped plastic insulation. In older cables the plastic insulation of the earth conductor is green. [6] Prior to the introduction of TPS cable, tough rubber sheathed (TRS) cable was used. Because of this, TPS ...

4. Silicone - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Silicone

   Silicone caulk can be used as a basic sealant against water and air penetration. In organosilicon and polymer chemistry, a silicone or polysiloxane is a polymer composed of repeating units of siloxane (−O−R 2 Si−O−SiR 2 −, where R = organic group). They are typically colorless oils or rubber-like substances. Silicones are used in ...

5. Heat-shrink tubing - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heat-shrink_tubing

   Animation of heat-shrink tubing, before and after shrinking. Heat-shrink tubing (or, commonly, heat shrink or heatshrink) is a shrinkable plastic tube used to insulate wires, providing abrasion resistance and environmental protection for stranded and solid wire conductors, connections, joints and terminals in electrical wiring.

6. Potting (electronics) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Potting_(electronics)

   Thermosetting plastics or silicone rubber gels are often used, though epoxy resins are also very common. When epoxy resins are used, low chloride grades are usually specified. [ 1 ] Many sites recommend using a potting product to protect sensitive electronic components from impact, vibration, and loose wires.

7. Insulator (electricity) - Wikipedia

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

   A flexible coating of an insulator is often applied to electric wire and cable; this assembly is called insulated wire. Wires sometimes don't use an insulating coating, just air, when a solid (e.g. plastic) coating may be impractical. Wires that touch each other produce cross connections, short circuits, and fire hazards.

9. 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.
