Stranded copper electrical wire for earthing (CU/PVC), manufactured by Jeddah Cables Company. Insulated with Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC), a type of plastic renowned for its excellent insulating properties and resistance to water and moisture. The insulation forms an exceptional protective layer around the conductor, preventing electrical current leakage and protecting the copper core from damage and corrosion caused by friction or other external factors. This provides superior protection for people and devices against electric shock, extends the lifespan of the wire, and slows down its degradation. Additionally, it is considered a cost-effective option compared to other insulation types. The grounding wire is used to provide a safe path for electric current to flow to the ground in the event of a short circuit, thus protecting people and equipment from electric shocks and fires. Available in various shapes and sizes with the highest quality and best prices to suit different applications and needs.
