Braided-shield cables provide a flexible method of electrically shielding a cable. The braid also adds strength to the cable. Because of this, braided-shield cables are the best choice for cables used ...

The right shielding for substation wire and cable continues to be a critical factor in enabling substations to become smarter, more sophisticated and more reliable. New sensors, distributed computing, ...

It's important to install the proper cable. RG-6 ('RG' is an old military term for Radio Guide/Grade) is the industry ...

This article will explain the difference between traditional, controlled environments and harsh, industrial environments as well as the type of cabling and interconnectivity products to specify when ...

Current-carrying conductors can be the cause, or be affected by, electromagnetic interference. INTER-8® Weave Cable provides substantial improvement over the performance of a conventional twisted pair ...

Normally when a spiral shield is used on a cable it is for one of three reasons, increased flexibility, ease of termination, or reduced manufacturing costs. Let's consider the differences between a ...

as a general rule, braided has better noise rejection. however, if the solid core has good shielding, it won't matter that much. just get whichever is the least expensive that follows the required ...

In applications where the accidental or terrorist detonation of a nuclear device is a concern, engineers design equipment to withstand electromagnetic pulses (EMPs). Cables for such applications were ...
