Share 6 Methods to Distinguish The Quality of Hook Up Electrical Wire

For some UL hook up electronic wire manufacturers, recycled PVC plastic is used as the insulation material, and recycled copper, or copper-clad aluminum, or steel wire is used for the core conductor. Compared to oxygen-free copper, these conductors have a much higher internal resistance and a much larger voltage drop. This is a disservice to devices rated at only 12V.

PVC Insulation

However, for other hook up electronic wires manufacturer, the insulator of electrical wire they manufactured is made of new anti-oxidation PVC plastic, and the core conductor is made of oxygen-free copper or tinned copper, or air-insulated tinned copper. Manufactured by precision equipment.

Actual Diameter

To judge the quality of UL hook up electronic wire, it depends not only on its appearance size, but also on the thickness and pros and cons of the copper core inside. Because the insulating layer of some electronic wires is very thick, it looks very thick, and it is easy to age and break, and the copper core inside is disproportionate and very thin. Therefore, it is mainly determined by the size of the cut surface of the copper core.

Inner Conductor

High-quality hook up electronic wire not only has good insulation and heat resistance, but also the core wire conductor is made of multi-stranded or braided, with sufficient density to reduce the resistance value, capacitance and inductance are very strong, so that the output is sufficient.

Insulation Colors

The color of the conductor, the qualified hook up electronic wire conductor is tinned copper, so it can be seen that the electrical wire conductor is shiny silver, and it also has a flickering luster, and the hand feel is very soft, which is conducive to bending and laying; The conductor color of the inferior hook up wire is dull, because it has many impurities, easy to break. When checking, just peel off one end of the wire by 2 cm, and then use a piece of white paper to rub it slightly on the conductor. Some black substances will appear at once, indicating that there are more impurities in the conductor mass.

Common Used Size

There are lots of common used sizes for the hook up electrical wire. UL1007 is the typical hook up electrical wire, there are lots of applications now, the  24awg, 18awg, 22awg, 20awg, 26awg all belong to very hot sale sizes.

Avoid Low Price 

In terms of price, due to the low production cost of inferior hook up electronic wires, some manufacturers often promote sales in the guise of high quality and low price in order to make money, so the price is very cheap.
