Four-conductor shielded cable with metal foil shield and drain wire. Coaxial cable. Electronic symbol for a shielded wire. A shielded cable or screened cable is an electrical cable that has a common conductive layer around its conductors for electromagnetic shielding. [1] This shield is usually covered by an outermost layer of the cable.
Cross-section through a coaxial cable showing shielding and other layers. One example is a shielded cable, which has electromagnetic shielding in the form of a wire mesh surrounding an inner core conductor. The shielding impedes the escape of any signal from the core conductor, and also prevents signals from being added to the core conductor.
Coaxial cable, or coax (pronounced / ˈ k oʊ. æ k s /), is a type of electrical cable consisting of an inner conductor surrounded by a concentric conducting shield, with the two separated by a dielectric (insulating material); many coaxial cables also have a protective outer sheath or jacket.
A solid-core cable uses one solid wire per conductor and in a four-pair cable, there would be a total of eight solid wires. [18] Stranded cable uses multiple wires wrapped around each other in each conductor and in a four-pair with seven strands per conductor cable, there would be a total of 56 wires (2 per pair × 4 pairs × 7 strands). [18]
Cutaway diagram of a shielded multicore cable with four cores each with three individual conductors. A multicore cable is a type of electrical cable that combines multiple signals or power feeds into a single jacketed cable. [1] The term is normally only used in relation to a cable that has more cores than commonly encountered. [2]
High voltage is defined as any voltage over 1000 volts. [3] Those of 2 to 33 kV are usually called medium voltage cables, those over 50 kV high voltage cables.. Modern HV cables have a simple design consisting of a few parts: the conductor, the conductor shield, the insulation, the insulation shield, the metallic shield, and the jacket.
