2722/18 Y/C

2722/18 Y/C application field and working principle is a subset of the single conductor cables. 2722/18 Y/C consists of stranded bare copper conductors, a single insulation layer and a combination of bare copper conductors and color coded polyvinyl chloride insulation. This cable finds application predominantly in electronic equipment, aviation and marine applications. As opposed to multi-conductor cables, single conductor cables are used to transmit electrical power to systems.

The most common applications of 2722/18 Y/C are in power distribution systems and providing electrical continuity between parts of electronic devices, such as between the circuit board and the flexible circuit boards. In addition to providing power distribution, this type of cable is also commonly used in wiring connections of on-board aircraft. It offers an ideal combination of flexibility and durability in such applications.

The primary intent of 2722/18 Y/C is to provide flexible operation in different locations, and to achieve the greatest amount of resistance to physical and environmental exposures. This is achieved by the use of high quality, durable insulation materials like polyvinyl chloride (PVC), and high metal stranding. Its flexibility and strong insulation layer give 2722/18 Y/C the ability to withstand extreme temperatures and regular mechanical shocks.

Since 2722/18 Y/C is a single conductor cable, its primary function is to convey moderate amounts of power. At the same time, its flexible nature allows the cable to be used in many applications, such as automotive and industrial. Its specific characteristics offer shock and vibration resistance, as well as resistance to corrosion and abrasion.

The underlying principle behind 2722/18 Y/C is that electrical current passes through a conductor from one point to another without producing any heat energy and without inducing any electromagnetic interference. This is achieved by using stranded copper conductors, which create a low electrical resistance. This current transfer cannot be generated with multi-conductor cables; this is why single conductor cables are generally preferred for power distribution applications.

In conclusion, 2722/18 Y/C cable is generally used in power distribution systems, providing reliable and superior electrical performance. It is a high quality, durable cable that is ideal for providing electrical continuity between parts of electronic devices, and in providing power distribution for a variety of applications. Its strength, flexibility, and resilience allow it to be used in a wide range of environments.
