Power & Control Cable
Power and Control Cable
Power and control cables are the most common electrical cables used in residential, commercial, and industrial applications for power supply and signal transmission.
What is a power cable? A power cable is an assembly of one or more electrical conductors that transfer energy from its source – it’s usually the primary cable used to make its operating equipment work.
What is a control cable? Control cables are single or multiconductor cables that transfer data to other devices for measurement, regulation, and automation control.
Power and control cables are driven by application demands varying in levels of voltage, shielding options, flexibility requirements, oil resistance, and types of insulation to withstand environmental and operating conditions.


LAPP Tannehill maintains an extensive inventory of gauge sizes, stranding, insulation, and colors of power and control cable. The following table provides a few recommended types of power and control cable by general application. You can also browse our products below or contact us for additional assistance.

Flexible Power & Control Cable
Flexible power and control cables feature specially formulated jackets which allow for easier installation and an increased bend radius. Available in shielded and unshielded options, these cables can be applied in many different applications such as VFD drive/motor connections, HVAC, conveyors, automated manufacturing systems, cable tracks, continuous flex applications, along with many others.
