Fire alarm tech has stayed relatively the same throughout its time. There have obviously been improvements in the technology, but the simpler systems have stayed mainstream due to cheap pricing and simple design. With a fire alarm, the general system is composed of the control panel (motherboard), and the detectors. A Fire Alarm Cable is what connects the control panel to the detector. During installation, the installer will primarily focus on these three components; a durable and reliable cable is incredibly important. So, if the cable has to be effective and reliable, what makes a good Fire Alarm Cable ? Well, that can depend on the functionality of the cable. In most commercial buildings, a fire alarm is set to go off the moment the detector is set off. That means that a 3-conductor cable should connect to each device, allowing them to interact. However, you’ll want a 2-conductor cable for the control panel. When quality comes into play, there are a few things to cons

Before you go on a search to determine the best welding cable for the job, you may need to know exactly what it is. A welding cable works as the electrical conductor for the current produced from the welding through a series of copper strands wrapped inside a non-conductive covering or jacket. Copper is a better choice as a conductor, like we use in our 6 gauge welding cable at EWCS, because it has higher tensile strength and higher conductivity than other products, such as aluminum. Not only is copper a better conductor than products like aluminum, but it also tends to be more resistant to corrosion. Our 6 gauge welding cable has approximately 259 strands of 100% copper that allows it to be the best conductor. Our largest gauge welding cable has over 2000 strands of 100% copper that makes it the best for its size. So when purchasing the right welding cable, make sure that it is made with copper, like our selection of welding cables. Choosing the Proper Size when determinin
