The UV reading stands for Ultra Violet resistance. It refers to the outer jacket that surrounds the wires in a cable set. Cables used on surfaces of structures that are exposed to sunlight have to have a UV rating to prevent breakdown of the outer jacket of the cable.

Do you join brown electrical wire to red electrical wire and blue electrical wire to black electrical wire?
yes
Which wire carries the voltage?
Electrical wire.
What is negative electrical wire?
wire that is for ground normally gren
Can electrical plug be cut off to direct wire a fixture?
No, cord wire is only rated for connecting a table or floor lamp to a wall receptacle. By cutting it off and then connected to the circuit in a junction box is not acceptable practice.
What gauge wire do you need for 12.5 amps?
Electrical heaters are one of the devices that has to use the 80% de rate. A #12 copper wire is rated at 20 amps,de rated is 16 amp continuous. A #14 copper wire is rated at 15 amps, de rated is 12 amps. When a wire's capacity is smaller that that of the load current the next larger wire size must be used.Many heaters use #16 wire for this but its hot wires.They use special heater cord for this. Poor design.If you use #14 then any #14 is OK.Always check plugs for overheating.Clean plug tips.
Do you join brown electrical wire to red electrical wire and blue electrical wire to black electrical wire?
yes
What size wire is rated for 585 amps?
The Canadian Electrical Code requires a 1000MCM copper wire with a insulation factor of 90 degree C is rated at 585 amps. Quite a coincidence. The National Electrical Code requires a 900 kcmil copper conductor with an insulation rated for 90 degrees C for 585 amps..
What do you call an electrical wire that is not insulated or covered?
The electrical terminology of a wire with no insulation on it is a bare wire.
When is wire size an electrical hazards?
Wire size becomes an electrical hazard when it is under rated for the amount of current (Amps or I) it has to carry.Current is the flow of electrons in a circuit. If the current is too large for the cable, the cable will be subject to heating, which is a possible fire hazard.
What is 4160 Volt electrical wire insulation rated for?
You can use an insulation rating 5000 volt to run 4160 volt supply.
What can induce an electrical current in a wire?
A magnetic field can induce an electrical current in a wire.
Which type of wires used in electrical works?
Electrical wire is the type of wire that is used in electrical equipment. To strip the wires, you need to use wire strippers. There is also special tape called electrical tape that is used to secure the wire.
Which wire carries the voltage?
Electrical wire.
Electrical resistance in a wire depends on the wire's?
It's dependent on the wire's composition. That is, what material it is made of. <<>> The electrical resistance in a wire depends on the wire's length and cross sectional area.
How does the fuse wire save your electrical appliances?
The fuse wire is rated for a specific amount of amperage. If the amperage exceeds that rating, the fuse wire will quickly melt. The current flow in the circuit is interrupted, thereby protecting the appliance from an overload condition.
In an IEC-320 plug which wire carries electrical voltage?
the hot wire carries the electrical voltage
Mr. Eduvane has 2117of electrical wire. He distributed 212meters, 413meters, and 741meters of electrical wire to his pupils?
yeah this is the answer
