It is important for both contractors and manufacturers to understand the regulations for electrical cables. These regulations serve the purpose of ensuring safety, performance, and environmental standards are all met during the production and installation of the cable. China’s regulatory structure encompasses national standards (GB standards) and other industry specific codes for the different types of cables such as PVC, XLPE, and rubber insulated ones. Adherence to these requirements increases safety as well as product reliability and acceptance in the market which is very important for companies in the electrical industry.
