I don't know i wrote that it was a poor conductor of heat and that it is light
what did you guys write about the properties of plastic that enables it to be used in electrical cables?

I wrote the same, but I also specified that due to it's light weight it's used in OVERHEAD cables, assuming many cables are fitted underground, and they're more resistant to decay than they are light :x
InshaAllah everybody will get A*. ^^

hey um, i would like to know if what i wrote for plastic and aluminium is correct :)
For plastic insulation i wrote:
  • high melting point
  • can be molded to provide maximum insulation
For aluminium i wrote
  • low density( aerodynamic)
  • resistant to corrosion (oxide layer which makes it suitable for storms )

^What he said, but none of us are examiners here, so who knows, it might be correct. ^^

i guess plastic doesnt have high melting point......
