twisted conductors
1Twisted pair — 25 pair color code Chart Twisted pair cabling is a type of wiring in which two conductors (the forward and return conductors of a single circuit) are twisted together for the purposes of canceling out electromagnetic interference (EMI) from… …
2twisted pair — /twɪstəd ˈpɛə/ (say twistuhd pair) noun (in a computer) two insulated conductors twisted together helically and having useful properties for the transmission of digital data …
3twisted pair — noun : an electric cable consisting of two insulated conductors twisted together for minimized induction and having no common warp …
4aerial bunched conductors — (ABC) Method of power transmission where the three conductors are twisted into a thicker insulated cable. More expensive but better at surviving blizzard conditions than normal separate conductors …
5Wire — For other uses, see Wire (disambiguation). Wires overhead A wire is a single, usually cylindrical, flexible strand or rod of metal. Wires are used to bear mechanical loads and to carry electricity and telecommunications signals. Wire is commonly… …
6Copper wire and cable — Copper has been used in electric wiring since the invention of the electromagnet and the telegraph in the 1820s.[1][2] The invention of the telephone in 1876 proved to be another early boon for copper wire.[3] Today, despite competition from… …
