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...

Despite the fact that home security systems are becoming more prevalent in residential areas due to them becoming more affordable, it can be complicated to know and understand all the components necessary to purchase for a security system. However, security systems can also be used in commercial areas, such as small businesses, public spaces, school environments, or even areas of transportation. At EWCS, we can provide you with a large supply of security alarm cabl e variations to fit any security system set-up.

Security cameras and home security systems have become more and more affordable and realistic for homeowners, which is probably why you are trying to find the best security alarm cable right now! A security alarm cable has an important job, because it wires various components within a security system. An in-wall security alarm cable allows for connection all the alarm components in your security system; this includes door and motion sensors, keypads, control systems, and even smoke detectors. Not only are these security alarm cables used in homes, but they are also relied upon in commercial buildings, schools, college and university campuses, public spaces, and even with transportation. Some of the most widely used security alarm cables are 18 AWG and 22 AW G wires. 

No one wants to go out on their boat and have to worry about whether or not they may need to stop and tend to their boat by the end of the day. That’s why you buy the best quality products to keep your boat running smoothly, right? Well that’s no different with marine battery cables. When you invest in a proper cable for your boat, you know that you will have a safer and more durable ride. Marine battery cables are designed to withstand the harsh marine environment; you can’t use just any type of cables for your boat. The right marine battery cable needs to be able to handle the power output of your boat, as well as stand up to the weather conditions, be flexible to handle how your boat moves, and durable to stand up to the corrosion from water and gasoline that could get into the machine.

So you bought a new battery, but you’re still having trouble with starting your motor. You’ve cleaned the connections, checked for loose ends. You could blame it in your battery supplier or check your marine battery cables . More often than not, all your troubles are due to your cables not being up to par.

Electronic setups on marine equipment are subjected to more sources of possible degradation than any other class of vehicle. The battery, cables and terminals are constantly exposed to extreme temperatures, non-stop vibration and movement, and volatile chemicals all while being surrounded by electricity’s and metals worst enemy, mineral rich water. EWCS 2/0 marine battery cable is specifically designed to perform perfectly and consistently under this intense environment.
