Tips: Why do electrical wires age?

• Environment and temperature
  The external environment and heat source where the wire is located will cause its temperature too high, insulation breakdown, and even explosion and fire.
• Chemical corrosion
  The UL wire is directly buried in the area with acid and alkali effect, leading to corrosion of cable armor and outer protective layer. The protective layer is subjected to chemical corrosion or electrolytic corrosion for a long time, resulting in wire failure.
• External force damage
  A considerable number of electrical wire faults are caused by mechanical damage.
• Wire connector fault
  The wire connector is the weakest link in the cable line. Its failure caused by personnel’s direct fault (bad construction) often occurs. Construction personnel in the process of making wire joints, if there is a joint crimping is not tight and heating is not sufficient, all these will cause the insulation of the wire head to be reduced, thereby arousing the accident.
• Long-term overload operation of UL electrical wire
  Due to the thermal effect of the current, the load current through the wire will cause the conductor heating. At the same time, the skin effect of the charge, the eddy current loss of steel armor and insulation medium loss will also produce additional heat, so that the wire temperature rises. Long-term overload operation, too high temperature will accelerate the aging of insulation to make insulation breakdown.
