Today, manufacturers produce a large number of conductors with a wide range of performance characteristics and parameters. The main advantages of these products include reliability in use and ease of laying power lines. This category includes PuGV wire. The product is flexible and PVC insulated, making it suitable for use in communications networks or power lines. However, it requires protection from sunlight.
Specifications
Conductor production is based on GOST 6323-79. This means that the finished product has the following technical characteristics:
- cable equipped with copper conductors, placed in PVC insulation;
- possibility of application in a network with direct or alternating current;
- the conductor is able to withstand a constant voltage of 1000 V, as well as an alternating voltage from 450 to 750 V, the maximum frequency is 400 Hz;
- maximum cable heating +70°С;
- operation of a wire in a temperature condition from -50 °C to +70 °C is allowed;
- maximum ambient humidity - 98%;
- installation work is allowed at a temperature not lower than -15 ° C, a lower temperature adversely affects the flexibility properties of the insulation;
- the cable is resistant to shock and mechanical stress;
- has a high level of security;
- the shell is able to withstand heating up to +160°C;
- PVC insulation does not support combustion;
- the minimum bending radius is 5 wire diameters;
- if the installation rules are observed, the service life is 20 years.
Now PuGV wire It is manufactured in a large range of colors, which greatly facilitates the installation and subsequent repair of electrical systems. Focusing on the scheme and color palette, it is almost impossible to get confused.
Note that there is no clear agreement among manufacturers regarding the color of cable products, and this parameter is not regulated in any way by GOST. The only condition is ground loop must be yellow or green. There are types where two-color wires are used.
Where is PuGV applied?
PuGV wires are multifunctional cable productsand therefore have a wide range of applications. It's all about the cross section, the minimum diameter of which can be 0.5 mm², and the maximum diameter is 400 mm². Focusing on these parameters, you can create both switching and power lines.
Important! When mounting in open areas, protective structures must be used. It can be special trays or boxes. You can also use any kind of pipe. The main task is here: prevent direct exposure to ultraviolet radiation on the insulation. Recall that the sun's rays have a devastating effect on the PVC material.
The PuGV wire is most popular in everyday life. It is suitable for equipping electrical wiring in rooms under protective or decorative materials. It can be hidden inside a stretch or suspended ceiling, as well as laid under plaster. Often it is used to install a network inside brickwork or monolithic concrete. All this became possible thanks to the presence of wire insulation.
How does the abbreviation PuGV stand for
PuGV - transcript:
- "Pu" - installation wire;
- "G" - has flexible properties;
- "B" - cable insulation is made of polyvinyl chloride.
In addition, there is an additional wire marking: The letters at the end of the row indicate the name of the section. For example, "NG» determines whether the cable belongs to the group of non-flammable conductors — incombustible. It looks like this: PuGVNG.
Due to its versatile properties, this conductor has become one of the most sought-after products in its industry. Installation of the wire is carried out everywhere, from the banal wiring in the apartment to the power lines.
