There are many different types of protection sheats that are
found in different industries and applications are as Below:
Cable glands Chains
Electrical conduits Heat-shrink tubing
Cable protection conduits Reels
Drag chain Corrugated conduits
Sleeving Braided sleeving
Relay interfaces Digital time switches
C a b l e g l a n d s
Cable glands are devices designed to attach and
secure the ends of a cable to various equipment
and appliances. Cable glands can be constructed
from both metallic and non metallic materials
depending on the intended use and type of
buildings they are used in.
They can be used as sealing and termination
devices for all types of electrical equipments
power cables, control cables and communication
cables.
E l e c t r i c a l c o n d u i t s
These are tubes used to route and protect
electrical wiring in a building or non building
structure. They can be made of fired clay, metal,
plastic or fiber.
Factors such as wall thickness, mechanical
stiffness and materials used to make the
electrical conduits can be used when classifying
them into various categories.
C a b l e p r o t e c t i o n c o n d i t s
These are conduits that are designed to protect
cables from the normal wear and tear they can
be fitted during construction to protect electric
cables from further damage.
They can also come in handy in operations that
involve a lot of friction hence reducing the
expense brought about by constantly maintaining
or purchasing new cables.
D r a g c h a i n s Drag chains are also known as cable carriers,
energy chains or cable chains depending on how
various manufacturers prefer to brand them.
They can be defined as guides designed to
surround and guide flexible cables or hydraulic
hoses connected to constantly moving automated
machinery.
Drag chains are arranged horizontally, vertically,
rotary or in a three- dimensional way depending
on the type of equipment they are used in. Drag
chains are essential in protecting flexible cables
or hydraulic hoses from damage and keeping
them in the right position depending on their use.
S l e e v i n g
Tubular flexible insulation into which wires can
be fitted. They are measured in terms of
satisfying thermal, physical and chemical
properties hence they differ in terms of places of
use and weather conditions involved when they
are used. They can also be used to combine a
lot of wires into one main channel hence helping
in keeping in order wires and avoiding them
becoming a scattered mess.
C h a i n s
Chains are a series of interconnected links
usually made of metal. Chains can be made for
lifting machines and objects from one place as
well as transferring power in machines.
They can also be used together with locks to act
has means of securing a given item or
equipment. Chains can be used in various
activities both household ones and industrial
activities.
H e a t - s h r i n k t u b i n g
This is a shrinkable plastic tube used to insulate
wires hence able to provide protection encases
where wires undergo overheating or there are
various adverse effects in an environment.
They constant expansion and contraction abilities
enable them to fit into any type of electrical
equipment and prevent cracking.
Heat shrink tubing can come in handy in
equipments that normally consume a high level of
electrical current.
R e e l s
A reel is an object around which lengths of
another material are wound for storage. Reels
can be used in activities that mainly involve
temporal erection of equipments.
They can also be used in wiring by wounding
various lengths of wires required in the process
to avoid the environment looking messy. Reels
are mainly made of wood, plastic and in some
rare cases metal.
C o r r u g a t e d c o n d u i t s
These are conduits that are shaped into alternate
ridges and grooves.
The corrugated conduit's profile is characterized by
corrugation in the horizontal section.
They can be either in annular or helical shapes
hence combining them together can be possible.
They can either be made of plastic or metal
depending on the type of construction they are
used in.
B r a i d e d s l e e v i n g s
Braided sleevings - Threads of silk, cotton or
other material woven into a decorative band for
storing electrical wires. These are mainly
designed to bring out the element of
uniqueness and they can be easily identify from
far.
Braided sleevings are made up of materials that
are not only strong and durable but also ones
that can protect wires that are fitted in them.
R e l a y i n t e r f a c e s
Relay interfaces guarantee reliable and safe
transmission of digital signals that are essential
to the functioning of automated systems. They
amplify and output signals as well as checking
and cleaning them from any notable
interference that may have arisen during the
process.
They provide safety and reliability in terms of
signal conversion while ensuring the quality of
signals remains intact and is not lost.
D i g i t a l t i m e s w i t c h e s
Digital time switches these are timers that
operate an electric switch controlled by the
binary timing mechanisms.
Individual users set the time they require a
given circuit to be opened or closed and the
digital time switches gladly comply.
These switches are normally almost error
free in nature unless there is a malfunction in
the power source running them.
