What is a control cable? What are its features?
Control cables are PVC-insulated and sheathed, designed for use in industrial and mining enterprises, as well as in the energy and transportation sectors—suitable for control and protection circuits with rated AC voltages up to 450/750V. These control cables feature moisture-proof, corrosion-resistant, and damage-preventive properties, making them ideal for installation in tunnels or cable trenches.
Power cables are used to transmit and distribute high-power electrical energy along the main lines of power systems, while control cables serve to deliver electricity directly from distribution points within the power system to the power supply connections of various electrical equipment and appliances. Typically, power cables have a rated voltage of 0.6/1kV and above, whereas control cables are primarily rated at 450/750V.

MORESix Key Considerations for Control Cable Installation
Control cables are collectively referred to as the cables that connect from the control center to various systems, transmitting signals or enabling control operations. As one of the five major cable categories, control cables are primarily used in industrial and mining enterprises, energy and transportation sectors, or any organization requiring control over circuits supplied with rated AC voltages of 450/750 volts or lower. Typically, these cables are protected by either PVC insulation or a PVC sheath.

MOREWhat issues should be noted when using control cables?
Control cables are cables that connect from the control center to various systems, used to manage operational functions or transmit signals. Early control cables primarily handled tasks such as operating relays and switching devices, providing instrument readings, illuminating indicator lights, and managing alarm interlock systems—functions that were relatively simple. In recent years, however, with the widespread adoption of computer networks and low-voltage electrical systems, new requirements and more advanced functionalities have emerged regarding the selection and application of control cables.

MOREWhat is a control cable? And how does it differ from power cables?
The control cable features polyvinyl chloride insulation and sheathing, making it suitable for industrial and mining enterprises, as well as energy and transportation sectors. It is designed for use in control and protection circuits with AC rated voltages up to 450/750V. These control cables can be installed in tunnels or cable trenches, offering excellent moisture-proof, corrosion-resistant, and damage-preventive properties.
Control cables are used to directly transmit electrical energy from distribution points within the power system to the power supply connections of various electrical equipment and appliances. In contrast, power cables are specifically engineered for transmitting and distributing high-power electricity along the main lines of the power system.
