Armoured cable<\/strong>, also spelled armored cable<\/strong>, is a type of electrical cable reinforced with a protective layer\u2014typically steel or aluminum\u2014designed to resist mechanical damage and ensure electrical safety in demanding environments. But what exactly is it used for, and when should you choose it over regular cables?<\/p>\n
