🔍 Key Concepts

• Shipboard cable construction and why ships use stranded conductors instead of solid • How cable flexibility affects installation in tight spaces, cable trays, and through bulkheads • Effects of conductor type on electrical properties vs. mechanical handling

💭 Think About

• Think about the physical environment on a ship: motion, vibration, tight bends, frequent handling. Which choice directly helps with that? • Which option describes a benefit that is mechanical/installation-related rather than purely electrical or structural? • If you had to repeatedly bend and route the cable through confined spaces, which characteristic would matter most?

✅ Before You Answer

• Distinguish between electrical performance (resistance, current flow) and mechanical performance (handling, bending, vibration). • Ask yourself which option is the fundamental reason classification societies and standards specify stranded cable for ships—not just a possible side benefit. • Eliminate any answer that does not clearly relate to how easily the cable can be routed, bent, or installed on a vessel.
