Lighting Cables

The use of electrical cables is necessary for many everyday activities. Whether you're renovating, lighting an outdoor space or installing household appliances... In fact, electrical cables are often necessary for the design of lighting fixtures.

What is electrical cable?

An electrical cable is an object that distributes electrical energy from one point to another. To do this, it unites several electrical wires in a sheath. In this way, electrical cable enables your lighting fixtures to receive the electricity they need to light your day-to-day life.

Electrical cables come in different colors, depending on the model.

Similarly, cable configurations can differ considerably depending on their purpose.

The different forms of electrical cable

Depending on their function, the characteristics of electrical cables can vary considerably.

Electrical cables for lighting fixtures belong to the category designed for fitting out homes and other premises. In any case, be sure to consider the size of the socket in relation to the bulb you want to install and/or the lighting you need.

The importance of cable colors and textures

You need to think carefully when choosing the texture of your lighting cable. While some materials, such as plastic, are easy to handle and maintain, others, like metal, pose more difficulties.

The color of your object should also suit your personal taste and the location where you wish to install it.

If you're thinking of redecorating your home, consider matching the design of your electrical cable to the style of your new decor.

If in doubt, opt for sober colors that are easy to integrate into any interior, such as white or black.

For a warmer interior, you can opt for warmer colors. Conversely, opt for colors like white, gray or blue if you've decided to install your cable in a cold environment.

How do you choose the right cable dimensions?

Cable sizes vary from model to model. Some are very long, others wider - there's plenty to choose from. In general, the choice of electrical cable for lighting fixtures is made primarily on the basis of its length, to ensure that ceiling height remains adequate after the installation of a suspension system, for example.

The width of the electrical cable should also be considered, but more for aesthetic reasons.

How do you protect your cables?

To keep your electrical cables in good condition, it's best to keep them in a healthy environment. This means a room or place with a suitable ambient temperature, not exposed to gusts of water, for example. It's also important to protect your cables from physical shock. Finally, to keep your cables in good condition, don't hesitate to dust them regularly with a feather duster, a microfiber towel or a simple cloth.
