⚡ Voltage Grades of Cables
Cables are categorized based on the maximum voltage they can safely carry.
| ⚡ Voltage Grade | 🔌 Voltage Range | 📍 Typical Application |
|---|---|---|
| Low Voltage (LV) | 0 – 1000 V | House wiring, small offices |
| Medium Voltage (MV) | 1.1 kV – 11 kV | Distribution networks |
| High Voltage (HV) | 11 kV – 33 kV | Industrial and commercial supply |
| Extra High Voltage (EHV) | 66 kV – 220 kV | Power transmission lines |
| Ultra High Voltage (UHV) | Above 220 kV | Grid-level long-distance supply |
