Comparison of the advantages and disadvantages of soft and hard wires

From the appearance of wires

Flexible wire, also called sheath wire, is generally a wire made of multiple copper wires with a diameter of less than 1mm. The hard wire is a relatively thick single-strand metal wire, generally directly above 1mm.

From the perspective of the nature of the wire

The thread of the cord is relatively thin and soft, which is convenient for turning and passing through the tube. However, it is easy to age over time and affect the service life of the entire circuit.

Hard wires are inherently relatively small in cross-section, resistant to the impact of short-circuit current, and hard wires are not easy to oxidize, and their lifespan is relatively longer than that of soft wires. However, the hard wire itself is hard to deal with when turning through the pipe.

Is the flexible cord better for home improvement or the hard cord longer life?

Each copper wire of the flexible wire is relatively thin, which is easy to be damaged and broken during installation, thereby affecting the electrical conductivity of the wire. On the contrary, the hard wire will not be affected by the construction process, and it is much better in reliability and durability.
