Frequently Asked Questions
1. What is the price of an electrical cable per meter in Pakistan?
- Prices range from 50 PKR to 1,000 PKR per meter depending on the type and brand.
2. What should be considered before choosing a cable?
- Consider the application, length, voltage requirements, insulation, and environmental factors.
3. Which cable can be used for high lengths?
- High-voltage cables are ideal for long-distance power transmission.
4. Which cable has the fastest speed?
- CAT5/6 cables offer high-speed data transfer for network connections.
5. Which cable is best for home wiring?
- PVC/XPL cables or Twin and Earth cables are commonly used for home wiring.
6. How do you differentiate stranded wires from solid wires?
- Stranded wires consist of multiple thin wires twisted together, offering flexibility. Solid wires are a single, thicker wire, providing rigidity and better conductivity.
7. What is a grounded electrical cable?
- A grounded cable has a connection to the earth to prevent electrical shock and ensure safety.
8. What are the common uses for electric cables?
