Elektrijuhtmeid
Elektrijuhtmeid, also referred to as electrical conductors or wires, are components designed to carry electrical power and signals between devices, machines, and electrical systems. They typically consist of a conductive core made of copper or aluminum, which may be solid or stranded. The core is insulated with polymeric materials such as PVC, polyethylene, or cross-linked polyethylene, and often protected by an outer jacket. In some installations, particularly in harsh environments or for mechanical protection, the cables are armored and may be provided as flexible cords for portable use.
Conductors come in various configurations, including single-core and multi-core forms, as well as flexible or rigid
Materials and construction influence durability and safety. Copper offers high conductivity and ductility, while aluminum provides
Standards and safety regulate the manufacture and use of elektrijuhtmeid. International standards from organizations such as
