In modern building electrical engineering, wires and cables must not only ensure stable power supply, but also shoulder the heavy responsibility of safety and fire prevention. Especially in high-temperature and high-density electrical equipment environments, it is crucial to choose a wire with flame retardant properties. ZC-BV wire is just such a “fire guard”.
What is ZC-BV wire?
ZC-BV, the full name is flame-retardant polyethylene insulated copper core wire, is a flame-retardant reinforced version of “BV” wire.
“B” stands for cloth wire,
“V” is polyvinyl chloride (PVC) insulation material,
“ZC” stands for flame retardant C class, which can be divided into four categories according to national standards: ZA, ZB, ZC, and ZD. ZC is generally used.
The conductor uses a high-purity copper core with good conductivity and mechanical strength; the insulation layer uses modified PVC material with excellent flame retardant properties, which can delay the spread of flames.
Wide application scenarios, safety first
ZC-BV wires are widely used in fixed laying lines in the following occasions:
- Civil residences, office buildings, shopping malls and other building lighting lines
- Power supply lines for power equipment in industrial plants
- Signal transmission lines for telecommunications and instrumentation systems
- Weak current projects that require key fire protection, such as fire protection systems and air conditioning systems
Especially in environments such as pipeline laying, cable trough pipe wearing, and bridge rack arrangement, once the line is overloaded or short-circuited, the insulation layer of ordinary wires may burn quickly and release toxic gases, while ZC-BV can significantly reduce the burning speed, giving personnel evacuation and fire rescue precious time.
Why recommend ZC-BV?
Flame retardant performance meets the standards, meets national standards, and has good vertical combustion self-extinguishing ability.
Good mechanical strength:
copper core conductor is not easy to break, easy to construct, suitable for multiple methods such as pipe wearing and open installation.
Strong durability:
PVC insulation layer is corrosion-resistant, moisture-resistant, and adaptable to complex environments.
High cost performance:
more affordable than cross-linked polyethylene cable, it is a common choice in daily engineering projects.
Flexible application:
suitable for all kinds of household, commercial and industrial electrical systems, it is the preferred material for standard projects.
With the improvement of people’s requirements for electricity safety, flame-retardant wires have become a standard configuration that cannot be ignored. ZC-BV is not only a wire, but also a safety guardian in hidden lines. In daily decoration, electrical renovation and even large-scale project bidding, choosing ZC-BV wires is not only responsible for project quality, but also a commitment to life safety.
Choose ZC-BV to guard the first line of defense for electricity safety from the source.
