Single Conductor Cables (Hook-Up Wire) are cables that contain one electrical conductor, typically single strands of copper or aluminum wire encased in a layer of insulation. The name comes from the fact that these cables can be used to hook up wires and devices in panel boards, switchgear, and electrical systems where one conductor runs to the device and the other is connected back to the source.

CT2879-4-50 is a single conductor wire from Multi/Cable Corporation that has specialized applications in electrical systems, including industrial automation and control. It features a Teflon PFA insulation and stainless steel armor for superior resistance to heat, chemicals, environmental factors, and mechanical influences. The Teflon PFA insulation provides excellent dielectric strength, flexibility, and toughness, while the stainless steel armor provides maximum protection in severe industrial environments.

The CT2879-4-50 wire is designed for applications such as communications wiring, interconnects, and high-power jumpers/cables. It can also be used for internal wiring, high-voltage switchgear/fuse blocks, and jumpers in hazardous areas. This cable is rated for temperatures up to 450°F (232°C), and it has a voltage rating of 500 volts.

The working principle behind the CT2879-4-50 is very straightforward. The conductor within this cable is composed of bare strands of copper or aluminum, depending on the wire gauge. The strands are wrapped together in either a left or right twist to make the conductor more flexible and conductive. The twist also serves to reduce the “skin effect” phenomenon, which is when high-frequency alternating currents tend to flow only on the outer surfaces of a conductor.

The next element is the insulation layer composed of Teflon PFA. The Teflon PFA is a fluoropolymer insulated material, meaning it is resistant to chemicals, high temperatures, and abrasion. This makes it ideal for applications where corrosive gases or chemicals may be present. Additionally, the insulation layer is color-coded according to the American Wire Gauge of the cable, making it easy to identify the wire size and the range of amps that the conductor is meant to carry.

Finally, the CT2879-4-50 features stainless steel armor, making it suitable for use in extremely harsh and demanding industrial applications. The armor serves to protect the conductor from physical damage, as it is composed of an interlocking metal sheath that can withstand wear, tear, and even electrical discharges. It also provides an extra layer of shielding, ensuring that the cable is not exposed to interference from outside sources.

In conclusion, the CT2879-4-50 is an excellent single conductor wire for applications such as communications wiring, interconnects, and high-power jumpers/cables. The combination of its Teflon PFA insulation and stainless steel armor makes it a reliable and durable choice for any application where superior resistance to heat, chemicals, environmental factors, and mechanical influences are necessary.
