When renovating, do you often encounter the question of whether RVS flexible cable or RVS power cable is better for power strips? What's the difference between these two types of cable? RVS and RVV are both types of cable. Let's take a look at the differences between them.
What is RVS cable?
RVS cable is a twisted-pair cable, consisting of two plastic-copper flexible RV cables twisted together. It is commonly used for public address systems, fire protection systems, and other wiring. RVS twisted-pair cable, also known as flexible cable, consists of two wires twisted together. What colors are available? For example: red and black, red and blue, yellow and green, red and white, red and yellow, etc. RVS flexible cable is generally used for power strips.
What is RVV cable?
RVV power cable is a commonly used cable in low-voltage systems and is often seen around us. RVV series power cables are used in desktop computers, air conditioner wiring, and outlets. They consist of two or more RV cables wrapped in a sheath. The internal cores are not limited to two, but also come in three, four, and six-core configurations.
The letter R stands for flexible cable.
The letter V stands for polyvinyl chloride (PVC) insulation.
When wiring, for straight lines with few loops, without running cables or through walls, you can choose RVS cable. For trunk lines and multi-circuit wiring, you can choose RVV power cable.
The above is a brief introduction to RVS and RVV cables. As you can see, flexible cable is generally preferred when using power strips. We'll share the differences between RVV power cable and RVS cable, hoping this will help you choose the right cable for your needs.
