Definition of Conducting wires.electrical wires and cables.SWG definition and meaning in simple words.

Definition: Conducting wires are wires made of conductive metal.  The cylindrical shape makes this wire easy to build and inexpensive, makes the wire flexible and durable, easy to overlay, and maintains an electric current.  Wires are classified into two groups, as they are used as a medium for conducting current, so that the wires are covered with flexible plastic material to protect the life of the stream while it does not affect the atmosphere.


Two types of WIRES :
1.Single Strand Wire and
2. Multi Strand Wire.
The advantages of the Multi Strand Wire are as follows:
1. Being more flexible, it can bend in any direction and less likely to break when bending.
2. Can carry relatively more flow.
3. High frequency flow is useful for carrying vehicles.
4. The wire does not get hot as the carrier is playing air in the wires.
5.  Magnetic field does not have much effect.
   
Wires are used to carry current.  The carrying capacity of the wires depends on the following two factors:
1.  Conductivity of metal used for wire making conductivity of metal - Silver, Copper and Aluminium.
2.  Carrier wire thickness or diameter - The higher the star's thickness, the more flow can be safely carried through it.

Standard Wire Gauge:  SWG tool is used to measure the thickness of carrier stars.


 For example, a wire with 30 SWG is less diameter than 18 SWG stars.  Single Strand Wire is used where permanent wiring should be performed, e.g.  Unlike indoor wiring, where continuous wire movement is required, Multi Strand Wire is used to convey information about the wire as follows -
Single Strand with 1/18 = 18 Gauge Single Wire.
Multi strand with 7/36= 36 Gauge with seven stars.
