    Compare wire vs. cable and choose the right option based on gauge, number of conductors, insulation, and current rating.

    Unshielded

    Shielded

    This cable gives you room to roam. It extends as you move, then retracts and self-coils for convenience. It's often used with low-current communication equipment such as microphones and headsets.
    Unshielded—Choose unshielded wires when electromagnetic interference (EMI) isn't a concern. Equipment such as motors and pumps may have voltage fluctuations and current spikes that distort signals.
    Shielded—A single layer of shielding protects sensitive electronics and control systems by blocking electromagnetic interference (EMI). Otherwise, equipment such as motors and pumps could distort signals.
