   Telephone wiring from the 1970s. Low voltage cables are often laid across ceiling joists and insulation in roof cavities. Three-phase power is commonly used for industrial machines, particularly motors and high-load devices. Provision for three-phase power must be considered early in the design stage of a building because it has different ...
