When you get wire that is a shielded pair, you get two individual conductors that are each individually insulated from each other, and the pair is twisted and wrapped with a thin layer of foil to provide electromagnetic shielding to the pair. Occationally you'll see the pair is surrounded with a braided shield, but not commonly. That's your shielded pair.

What is normal telephone wire called?
I have always known it as 3 pair as it has 3 pairs of 3 colours. (blue, green and orange)
What is the function of a braided wire?
A braided wire is less likely to break than a solid wire. Also it can bend sharp corners easier than solid wire. <<>> The use of braided wire is to act as a shield on analog cable sets. The braid can be 50%, 75% or 100% shielding. The braid is grounded only at one end so as not to conduct a current through mutual inductance from other wires. Its function is to protect the signal wires in its cable from magnetic interference from adjacent non shielded cables. The wires inside the shielded cable are stranded where as the braided shield is very fine solid wire woven together to form a shield over the entire cable set. Another example of a braided wire would be a coaxial cable.
Do you need to use TC extension wire to connect a thermocouple or can you use shielded cable?
You must use thermocouple wire (of the same type as the thermocouple) to extend the circuit. If you switch to a different wire the point of connection between the two becomes a thermocouple junction itself, and the resulting voltage from that junction will skew your reading. You can use any wire to extend a thermocouple connection if you know the temperature of the junction where the thermocouple wire ends--this becomes the reference junction.
Shielded metal arc welding is sometimes called welding?
It is sometimes called "stick welding", because of the filler metal. The filler metal is in the form of heavy wire coated with flux.
What is a current-carrying wire?
A wire with some resistance and a voltage applied to it The amount of current I passing this wire is V/R
Does Shielded Twisted Pair wire follow the same standards as Unshielded Twisted Pair wire?
No
What are the advantages of ordinary twisted pair compared to the shielded ones?
Twisted pair wire is placed inside a thin metallic shielding, similar to aluminum foil, and is then enclosed in an outer plastic casing. The shielding provides further electrical isolation of the signal-carrying pair of wires. Shielded twisted pair wires are less susceptible to electrical interference caused by nearby equipment or wires and, in turn, are less likely to cause interference themselves. Because it is electrically "cleaner," shielded twisted pair wire can carry data at a faster speed than unshielded twisted pair wire can. The disadvantage of shielded twisted pair wire is that it is physically larger and more expensive than twisted pair wire, and it is more difficult to connect to a terminating block.

How can speaker performance be improved?
Use speaker wire that is shielded better and has a lower resitance.
What color is ground wire for a microphone?
Sorry, there is no "ground wire" for a microphone. Commercial microphones have shielded symmetric wiring. Cheers ebs
How do you do you cut the wire in the freezer?
With a pair of wire snips.
What does 's' mean on an electrical wire?
There could be more than one answer to this question, but one possibility is "shield" meaning the drain wire for a shielded cable.
What is the small plastic connector called that is on the end of an unshielded twisted pair Network wire?
RJ-45
What are major limitations of twisted-pair wire?
twisted pair wire is limited in distance, bandwidth, and data rate.
What is the operation principle of a twisted pair wire in transmission media?
Describe the basic construction of twisted pair wire?
How do you avoid crosstalk?
Don't run too much wire together in a bundle. You can also go with STP, which is Shielded Twisted Pair and that does not have much crosstalk. There are pipes you can buy where you run cable through them that are also suppose to help.
We can wire this cable the way you need it, just ask in the order comments. The cable is thin, but it is shielded. We also offer heavier cables if needed.?
