55PC1111-16-6-9 Cables, Wires

Single Conductor Cables (Hook-Up Wire) is a type of cable consisting of one or more individual wires, one of which is commonly referred to as a hook-up wire. The 55PC1111-16-6-9 is a variant of Single Conductor Cable with specific application fields. This article is designed to discuss its application field and working principle.

Application Field

The 55PC1111-16-6-9 is specifically designed for use in a multitude of relatively harsh and hazardous environments. Such environments can include those with repeated exposure to water, dust, chemicals, and elevated temperatures. It is also tough enough to be used in wet and dry locations both indoors and outdoors.

Its most common applications include wiring for traffic signals, control systems, industrial equipment, lighting, and other industrial applications. This cable variant can also be used in the construction of motor leads, conduit, and wiring systems.

Working Principle

The 55PC1111-16-6-9 is made up of a single insulated conductor relatively small in diameter. Despite its thickness, it is highly capable of being able to carry the necessary current for specific electronic and industrial applications. Its core is made of stranded copper, with a thin insulation coating around it. This insulation is available in polyvinyl chloride (PVC) which is a fire retardant & resistant to water. For added strength & longevity, the insulation is further treated with an additional outer jacket designed to withstand the abrasion from repeated dissipation.

Conclusion

The 55PC1111-16-6-9 single conductor cable is effective and reliable for a multitude of industrial and electronic applications. It provides a lightweight and durable solution when it comes to the connection of motors, control systems, traffic signals, and indoor and outdoor wiring systems. Its core is designed to carry the necessary current for specific applications, while the insulation & outer jacket ensure the longevity of the wire in both dry and wet hazardous environments.
