So much of our world runs on electricity. What would we do without it? The types of electrical wire vary based on what the end application is. In our world at Del City, it’s all about automotive electrical wire. However, there are many types of electrical wire that fall into the realm of automotive electrical […]
What is primary wire after all? Often times when working on electrical builds, you’ll hear “primary wire” or “GPT wire” thrown around quite a bit. So, why is that?i Primary wire is one of the most common types of wire to use in electrical builds – specifically in automotive or DC applications.
Primary wire is primary wire, right? Not exactly true. There are different “grades” of primary wire, based on temperature ratings (voltage ratings are typically the same at 50V DC). Buy the wrong type, you could wind up melting the jacket and causing a short or electrical fire. Not good at all. So let’s go over […]
Looking for a wire that has an added shield protection to help combat the effects of EMI (Electromagnetic Interference)? Among the many assorted types of wire we offer, we now stock Shielded Wire, which is known for doing just that. It features stranded tinned copper conductors, polyethylene insulation, polyester reinforced tape, and stranded tinned copper […]
When you’re wiring a system that demands reliable power delivery—whether in an automotive, marine, or industrial setting—you’ll often run into two specific cable types: battery cable and welding cable. At first glance, they might seem similar: thick copper conductors with tough insulation. But dig a little deeper, and you’ll find key differences in flexibility, strand […]
