RVV cable is a multi-core flexible electrical cable featuring PVC insulation and a PVC outer sheath. It is designed for indoor low-voltage power supply, control systems, and household appliances. Known for its flexibility, safety, and reliability, RVV cable is widely used in residential, commercial, and light industrial settings.
What is RVV Cable?
RVV cable stands for “Sheathed Flexible Cable with Copper Conductors and PVC Insulation”. It consists of two or more flexible copper conductors, individually insulated and enclosed in a common PVC sheath. The number of cores typically ranges from 2 to 5, making it suitable for various low-voltage electrical installations.
