Terminology for cables (insulated and shielded parts)
Source : Tianxing Cable | Release date : 2024-05-06
1, insulation layer: the cable has a specific function of withstand voltage insulation material components.
2, conductor insulation: coated in the conductor or conductor shielding layer of insulation.
3, extruded insulation: usually by a layer of thermoplastic or crosslinked material to extruded insulation process.
4, wrapping insulation: with insulation tape spiral wrapped into a concentric layer of insulation.
5. Impregnated paper insulation: Wrapped insulation composed of paper impregnated with an insulating material.
6, mineral insulation: insulation composed of pressed mineral powder.
7, thermoplastic insulation: in the temperature range of its plastic characteristics can be repeated heating softening and cooling hardening, and in the softened state can be repeatedly extruded plastic made of insulation.
8, thermosetting insulation: when through heating or other methods, such as irradiation, catalysis and other curing will become a non-melting and insoluble product of plastic insulation.
9, cross-linked insulation: thermoplastic materials or copolymers or mixtures of one of the materials as the base material by chemical reaction, such as cross-linking or vulcanization or by physical methods, such as radiation curing after changing its internal molecular structure made of insulation.
10. Elastomer insulation: insulation made of materials that deform under small mechanical stress and return to the initial state after removing the mechanical stress.
11, shielding (cable) : can control the electric field in the insulation inside a layer or a combination of multiple conductive layers.
12, conductor shielding: non-metal and (or) metal materials coated on the conductor electrical shielding.
13. Insulated wire core shield: non-metallic and (or) metal material electrical shield covered in insulation.
14, grounding shield (cable); [grounding] Metal shield: The outer grounding metal layer that limits the electric field inside the cable and/or protects the cable from external electrical interference (note: metal sheath, metal foil, braided layer, armor layer and grounded concentric conductor can also be used as grounding metal shield).
15, peeling shield: made of extruded material, does not require special tools, solvents, heating or at the same time with any of the above methods can be completely removed an insulation shield
16, adhesive shield: only with special tools, solvents, heating or at the same time with any of the above methods to remove an insulating shield.
17, bare shield wire: a non-insulated metal wire placed in contact with the shield or ground shield.
