Single Conductor Cables (Hook-Up Wire) are an important type of cable used in a wide variety of applications. These cables, also referred to as “hook-up wire”, are composed of a single multi-strand conductor and are typically used in low-voltage and low-current applications. Such applications include powering of small devices, connecting audio and video components, and in-home alarm systems. These cables are designed to carry electrical signals between two or more devices, with the thickness, insulation, and overall construction of the cable closely depending on the application.

At the core of the single conductor cable is the individual wire or strands. The thickness of the wire is chosen based on application and environment. Common wire sizes range from 36 gauges (the thinnest) to 16 gauges (the thickest). In addition to this, insulators or dielectrics such as polyvinyl chloride (PVC), polyethylene (PE), neoprene, and polyurethane (PU) may be used based on the application. Each of these materials has a unique set of characteristics, providing optimal electrical performance and protection. The insulation is chosen based on voltage, current, environmental conditions, and any safety requirements.

The 8918 and 1891000 series single conductor cables are one of the most commonly used products for these types of applications. These cables use stranded copper or copper-clad aluminum (CCA) wires and are insulated with PVC. They are rated for 600 volts, and can be ordered with 14 to 18 AWG conductors. The 8918 is UL719 listed for use in wet locations, whereas the 1891000 has UL listed cable for direct burial. Both series are suitable for electrical connections within lighting and signal circuits, power connections within cabinets and machines, and power supply for control systems.

The working principle of single conductor cable is quite simple. Electrical current flows along the lines of the cable, stopping at points of resistance. This principle is used in many different applications, and it is the reason that single conductor cables are so reliable. At the point of resistance, the current must deliver the appropriate amount of power, and will not carry any more than the rated wattage.

By using different insulator and resistance levels, single conductor cables can be tailored to almost any application. The combination of wire thickness and insulation type can be selected based on the environment in which the cable will be used and the expected power load. This allows for the performance and reliability of the cables to be maximized, while minimizing the risk of electrical shock and other hazards.

Single conductor cables can be used in many different types of applications, offering users a reliable and safe solution for completing their electrical system. From powering small devices to in-home alarm systems, single conductor cables provide the necessary performance and safety needed for these applications. With the 8918 and 1891000 series, users can be sure that they are getting the highest quality cable available.
