What is Stranded cable?
 
Stranded cable is a type of electrical wire or cable,The Stranded cable is made of multiple thin wires bundled together. The material of theStranded cable is highly soft, so there is no need to worry about tearing. Perfect for tight spaces like our electronics, circuit boards and speaker wires.
 
Characteristics of stranded cable:
 
1.fiber optic cable buried The current capacity of Stranded cable is lower than that of solid wire.
 
2.The manufacturing process of Stranded cable is complicated and the production cost is relatively high.
 
3.Twisted wire is easier to maneuver around obstacles and can be bent. Solid wire is less flexible in practical applications, but it is very durable.

What is a Solid wire?
 
Characteristics of solid wire:
 
1.burial fiber optic cable Consisting of a single solid conductor, solid wire is strong, durable and resistant to high temperatures.
 
2.direct burial fiber Solid wire is more suitable for outdoor use, high current applications, and infrastructure wiring such as urban building wiring and vehicle control. Solid wire has a higher current capacity. Solid wire has a lower cost due to its simpler manufacturing process.
 
How to choose between Stranded cable and solid wire?
 
Key Differences Comparing stranded wire vs. solid wire involves exploring the advantages and disadvantages of two very different types of wire. Comparisons can narrow your choices based on how a specific wire's characteristics relate to its intended use and project requirements. 
 
You must first determine your application's requirements for weather resistance, flexibility, and resistance to splitting or severing. Then, choose the wire that best meets those needs.
