What is an Electrical Power Cable?

An Electrical Power Cable (CABLE,POWER,ELECTRICAL) is two or more insulated conductors (solid or stranded) contained in a common covering, or two or more insulated conductors twisted or molded together without a common covering, or one insulated conductor with a metallic covering, covering, shield, or outer conductor. The rated working voltage of the item must be 300 volts or more, or in lieu of this the test voltage must be 1,000 volts or more; and the size of each individual conductor must be number 18 American Wire Gage (0.75 SQUARE MILLIMETERS) or larger. For cables with uninsulated neutral conductor use the hightest rated voltage. Refers to bulk quantities only, for items of definite length with processed ends or terminated in fittings, see CABLE ASSEMBLY, POWER, ELECTRICAL. For low voltage aircraft and automotive cable, see CABLE, SPECIAL PURPOSE, ELECTRICAL.

What is a Radio Frequency Cable?

A Radio Frequency Cable (CABLE,RADIO FREQUENCY) is an item consisting of electrical conductors separated from each other by a continuous homogeneous dielectric (including porous types and touching and/or interlocking beads or spacers), and designed primarily for the conduction of radio frequency energy. Includes a single conductor inclosed in an outer concentric conductor (coaxial) with or without a protective sheath; two or more coaxial cables laid parallel with an outer electrical shield and/or common sheath; two or more parallel conductors with an outer electrical shield and/or a common sheath; two or more individually insulated twisted conductors with or without an electrical shield and/or protective covering. All types have low-loss or special characteristics at high frequencies. Refers to bulk quantities only; for items of definite length with processed ends or terminated in fittings, see CABLE ASSEMBLY, RADIO FREQUENCY. See also LINE, RADIO FREQUENCY TRANSMISSION.

What is an Electrical Wire?

An Electrical Wire (WIRE,ELECTRICAL) is a single metallic conductor of solid, stranded, or tinsel construction, designed to carry current in an electrical circuit. It may be a bare or insulated, may have metalic covering sheath, shield or and additional jacket. Refers to bulk quantities only. For items that are solid or stranded, insulated or uninsulated, and have the chemical composition specified but no conductivity (electrical properties) see WIRE,(as modified), Includes Litz wire and insulated/uninsulated armored, and ground wire. Excludes BRAID, WIRE; FUSE WIRE; RESISTANCE WIRE and MAGNET WIRE.

What is an Electrical Special Purpose Cable?

An Electrical Special Purpose Cable (CABLE,SPECIAL PURPOSE,ELECTRICAL) is two or more individually insulated conductors (solid or stranded) contained in a common covering, or two or more individually insulated conductors twisted or molded together without a common covering, or one insulated conductor with a metallic covering or shield; each having characteristics not completely conforming to CABLE, TELEPHONE; CABLE, POWER, ELECTRICAL; CABLE, RADIO FREQUENCY or CORD, ELECTRICAL. Includes items having the combined characteristics of two or more of the aforementioned names. Refers to bulk quantities only; for items of definite length with processed ends or terminated in fittings, see CABLE ASSEMBLY, SPECIAL PURPOSE, ELECTRICAL.

NATO Supply Class 6145 is a classification within NATO Supply Group 61, which is dedicated to Electric Wire, And Power And Distribution Equipment.

NATO Supply Class 6145 specifically focuses on Wire And Cable, Electrical. This class includes various types of electrical wires and cables that are used for power transmission, distribution, and communication purposes. These wires and cables are designed to carry electrical current and signals in different applications.

The Wire And Cable, Electrical category in NATO Supply Class 6145 encompasses a wide range of products, including but not limited to:

1. Power cables: These cables are used for transmitting electrical power from one point to another. They are commonly used in buildings, power plants, and industrial applications.

2. Communication cables: These cables are designed for transmitting data and signals in communication systems. They can be used for telephone lines, computer networks, and other communication infrastructure.

3. Coaxial cables: Coaxial cables are used for transmitting high-frequency signals, such as those used in television and radio broadcasting, as well as in data transmission for internet connections.

4. Fiber optic cables: Fiber optic cables use thin strands of glass or plastic to transmit data using light signals. They are widely used in telecommunications and high-speed internet connections.

5. Control cables: Control cables are used for transmitting signals to control and operate various electrical devices and systems. They are commonly used in industrial automation and machinery.

6. Instrumentation cables: Instrumentation cables are designed for transmitting low-voltage signals from sensors and instruments to control systems. They are commonly used in industrial process control and measurement applications.

It's important to note that NATO Supply Class 6145 is just one classification within the broader NATO Supply Group 61. This group also includes other classes related to electric wire, power equipment, and distribution equipment.

Understanding these classifications can be helpful when procuring or discussing electrical wire and cable products within NATO member countries.
