The PVC wire we usually use is actually RVV wire, the full name is copper core PVC insulated PVC sheathed flexible wire, also known as light PVC sheathed cord, commonly known as soft sheathed cord, which is one of the sheathed cords. It is mainly used in power cords, control lines and signal transmission lines for electrical appliances, meters, electronic equipment and automation devices, specifically for anti-theft alarm systems, building intercom systems, etc. Rated voltage 300V/500V, with number of cores from 2 to 24, two or more cores are twisted into a cable, the outer stranding direction is right, widely used in instruments, meters, building intercom, monitoring and monitoring Control installation.

What the letters mean

R stands for soft cord.

V stands for insulator polyvinyl chloride (PVC).

The role of the sheath

For example: rvv2*0.5 means 2 wires of 0.5mm2 plus a layer of outer sheath. The function of the sheath is to protect the inner sheath of the cable from mechanical damage and chemical corrosion; meanwhile enhancing the mechanical strength of the cable.

Application of RVV cable

RVV cable is mainly used in flexible use places such as medium and light mobile electrical appliances, instrumentation, household appliances, power lighting, etc. It can be used with waterproof connectors for transmitting control signals and power signals, and it is also suitable for laying in bridges and hoses. Shenzhen 2IN1 Technology Co., Ltd., a factory maily focus on manufacturing of waterproof connectors, we also have the machines to make RVV cable. Any query, please feel free to contact us.
