In today's world of technology if there is something necessary after air and water it is appliances and machines. Either it is office or home it is full with equipments and most importantly computer that basically runs our life. These equipments ultimately cannot work without wires.
Especially offices are houses of equipments where computers, printer, modems, fax machines are connected with each other. Cables are trailing, dangling everywhere and some time it's get knotted in one other. These huge net of cables can leads to any unfortunate accidents. It can cause short circuits, fall of equipments from tables or anybody can fall by getting trap in these cables.
It is our duty to keep these cables in good condition and always use good reputed cable brands such as Finolex, Polycab etc. cables always tied with help of cord clips or Velcro bands. Keeping your cables tidy makes it easy to change out bad routers and hubs or a printer that has multiple users. Because many of the small and medium sized companies may have networks that contain a rack system with a switch, hub, routers and more, you can see how important it is to have cables that aren't tangled and clearly marked. It is always good to mark cables it may take few extra minutes but always good for future.
Same as cables electric wires are also very important part of office, we should change wires from time to time to prevent any foul accidents and never delay or ignore this. While changing or installing electric wires of office always appoint certified electrician and fit enough numbers of sockets to avoid any inconvenience in future. There are some basic hints that enlighten the requirement of electric wires such as black or colored cables running into the consumer unit. Black rubber-coated wires may be as old as 40 years, and this is a sign that the wiring needs to be change. Some other hints that tell electric wires should change are inadequate consumer unit, round pin plugs, and metal conductors running into the lights or sockets.
If you are planning for electric work make sure about type of conductors to installed. Options of combination of single conductors or a multi conductor cable are available. Single conductors come in two variants - THW and type THWN/THHN which are suitable for both dry as well as wet locations for temperatures up to 75 degrees Centigrade. Most of these wires and cables come inside protective metal or plastic conduit and one can buy either solid-core or stranded wire. Solid-core wires are rigid but have advantage of better connectivity.
If we take little care about cables and electric wires and give some efforts to upkeep them, we can stop many unfortunate events. Always remember prevention is better than cure.
