Low Voltage Wiring New Construction Systems

ECHU's Building Low Voltage System Cables provide safe and efficient power and signal transmission for low-voltage applications in residential, commercial, and industrial buildings. These cables support lighting, security systems, fire alarm systems, and other essential building functions.

 

How to Choose the Right Low Voltage Cable for My Application?

Choosing the right low voltage cable involves several factors:

01

Voltage and Current Requirements

Determine the required voltage and current ratings to ensure the cable can handle the electrical load.

 

02

Cable Type

Choose a cable type suitable for the environment (indoor/outdoor, wet/dry) and application (power, data, control).

 

03

Conductor Material

Copper is the most common conductor material due to its excellent conductivity. Aluminum is a cost-effective alternative for large gauge cables.

 

04

Shielding Needs

If there is significant electromagnetic interference or unwanted induction currents from nearby cables, select shielded cables to protect signal integrity.

 

Certifications for Low Voltage Cables

Home low voltage wiring cables often need to comply with safety and performance standards:

 

UL Standards

Underwriters Laboratories (UL) sets safety standards for various cables, ensuring flame retardancy, insulation integrity, and electrical safety.

 

CSA Standards

The Canadian Standards Association (CSA) provides certifications similar to UL, ensuring compliance with Canadian safety regulations.

 

CE Marking

Indicates compliance with European Union safety, health, and environmental protection standards.

 

RoHS Compliance

Restriction of Hazardous Substances (RoHS) certification ensures cables are free from certain hazardous materials like lead and mercury.
