FAQ

Wires and cables are an essential part of any electronics project. They can be used to connect different components or to provide power to a device. We Xinsen Cable Group carry a wide inventory of wires and cables for all your electronics needs. Any OEM products are also welcomed. Xinsen Cable Group will be your one-stop smart choice!
Here are common FAQ which may help to guide you find the most suitable product. Should you have any question, please feel free to contact us! We will reply you within 24 hours!

A:Cables are nothing but insulated interconnection equipment used to transmit electrical energy and communication signals. Typically, a cable has at least one hot wire to carry the current, one neutral wire, and one grounding wire. There are many types of cables are being manufactured as per our application requirement. Our Xinsen Cable group offer a variety of cables, welcome to contact us for inquiry!

A: Cables and wires are both used to transmit electrical signals, but there are some differences between them. Wires are typically single, solid conductors made of copper or aluminum, while cables are made up of multiple wires or conductors that are bundled together and insulated. Cables are generally more flexible and can carry higher voltages and currents than wires. Additionally, cables may have additional layers of shielding to protect against interference and noise. Our Xinsen Cable group not only offer cables, but also produce electric wires.

A: Measured in voltages and, depending on these, electric cables are categorized into below main groups:

Low voltage cables (up to 750 V): in a variety of applications, and with thermoplastic and thermoset coatings. They are designed and built according to harmonized standards.
Low Voltage cables (up to 1,000 V): (also called (0,6/1 kV) The cables in this section are used for industrial power installations in various fields (general industry, public installations, infrastructures, etc.). They are designed according to international standards (UNE, IEC, BS, UL).
Medium Voltage cables: from 1 kV to 36 kV. They are used to distribute electricity from electrical substations to transformer stations.
High Voltage cables: from 36 kV. They are used to transport electricity from the generating plants to the electrical substations.

Our Xinsen Cable group only offer low voltage cables and medium voltage cables.

A: There are several types of insulation used in electric cables, commonly used materials are PVC(Polyvinyl Chloride), XLPE (Cross-linked polyethylene), rubber, and PE(polyethylene).
Our Xinsen Cable group have all these materials for your choice.

A: When selecting the primary insulation materials for your cable, you will first need to know the particulars of your application—what voltage is needed, how the cable will be used within the application, and what environment the cable will be used in.
Then, consider the properties below to see if the material in question
will meet your needs.
1) Electrical Properties
• Dielectric strength
• Insulation resistance
• Insulation power factors
• Charging current
• Arc resistance
• Tracking susceptibility
2) Mechanical Properties
• Toughness and flexibility
• Tensile, elongation and crushing strengths
• Resistance to abrasion or moisture
• Brittleness
3) Chemical Properties
• Moisture absorption
• Resistance to oil, gas, acids and alkalis
• Stability when exposed to sunlight, ozone, or flames
4) Thermal Properties
• Expansion and contraction
• Softening and flow temperature
• Compatibility with operating, ambient, or emergency overload and short
circuit conditions

A:
Stranded is typically used to enable to pull the wires through conduit. Solid wiring can be passed through short pieces of conduit, but that is about it. Of course, stranded is always used where cables need to flex.

A: Polyvinyl Chloride is a thermoplastic that is specially compounded for general-purpose applications, allowing it to be used effectively in many environments. It is one of the most common insulation and jacketing materials for electronic cables. Because of its potential to release toxic fumes when burning, safer low-smoke zero-halogen (LSZH) options should be used in applications where people are confined, such as shipboard or mass transit systems. PVC is a good choice for: Primary insulation and/or jacketing in power distribution cables, building wiring, appliance wiring, flexible cords, high temperature wiring, industrial wiring, coaxial cables. Here are the advantages,
• Low cost & readily available
• Flexible
• Gas & vapor tight
• Resistant to:
– Abrasion
– Acids
– Flame
– Gasoline
– Moisture
– Oils
– Oxidation
– Weather & sunlight

A: The cross-linking process retains polyethylene’s excellent insulating abilities, while improving its strength and resistance to abrasion and environmental stress cracking. XLPE is a good choice for: Power cables, building wires, oil & gas applications, and insulation in medium to high-voltage electrical wires. Here are the advantages,
• Abrasion resistant
• Chemical resistant
• Retains strength at low temperatures

A: There is inner sheath and outer sheath used in cables, The inner sheath is used for protecting the cable from moistures which would affect the insulation. The inner cable sheath is made up of lead alloy, and these strengths withstand the internal pressures of the pressurized cables. The material used for inner sheath should be nonmagnetic material. While the outer sheath is used for giving the mechanical strength to the cables. It protects the cable from overall damage like moisture, corrosion, dirt, dust, etc.

A: Our Xinsen Cable group provides fast production lead time. For sample cable orders, lead time is about 1-3 workdays; for small quantity batch order, lead time is about 5-7workdays; for big quantity batch order, lead time is about 1-2 months.

A: We Xinsen Cable group offer one year warranty for all products.

A: Yes, Xinsen Cable group can reverse engineer most cables. We are also available to assist you in a consulting capacity if you are unsure of what product is necessary for your application.
