Best Answer

The voltage is always determined by the device. (in this case a slow cooker).
However, having established what voltage to supply to the device, the cable must be suitable for the voltage used. Everything in the chain of power transmission, must be rated for the correct voltage. Cables, plugs, fuses etc.

The electric cooker cable is made thicker because it has to carry more current. If it were too thin it would heat up and perhaps melt.


What is the purpose of a Cable tester?

A cable tester is used to test the electrical connections in a cable or other wired device. There are two ways to test for a connection: continuity test and resistance test. A cable tester can also test for a short by determining voltage.


Will voltage drop over cable distance?

If the voltage is supplying any current through the cable, i.e. if there is any 'load' at the end, then the voltage will drop through the cable.

It will decrease the voltage drop.


Formula for working out cable size?

There is actually no specific formula used to work out cable size. In order to determine the type of cable you need and the size you need, you need to know the source of the supply, the voltage of the system, the ambient temperature, and the method you plan on laying out the cable.

Can insulation resistance of cable be checked with a volt meter?

No. A volt-ohmmeter will not check insulation. To check cable insulation you need a special device (called a megger) made for the purpose that imposes a high voltage and measures current leaks.
