Coaxial cable, or coax (pronounced), is a type of cable that has an inner conductor surrounded by a tubular insulating layer, surrounded by a tubular conducting shield.

Many coaxial cables also have an insulating outer sheath or jacket.

The term coaxial comes from the inner conductor and the outer shield sharing a geometric axis.

Coaxial cable was invented by English engineer and mathematician Oliver Heaviside, who patented the design in 1880.

Heat shrink tubing (or, commonly, heat shrink or heatshrink) is a shrinkable plastic tube used to insulate wires, providing abrasion resistance and environmental protection for stranded and solid wire conductors, connections, joints and terminals in electrical work.

It can also be used to repair the insulation on wires or to bundle them together, to protect wires or small parts from minor abrasion, and to create cable entry seals, offering environmental sealing protection.

Heat shrink tubing is ordinarily made of nylon or polyolefin, which shrinks radially (but not longitudinally) when heated, to between one-half and one-sixth of its diameter.

A United States defense standard, often called a military standard, "MIL-STD", "MIL-SPEC", or (informally) "MilSpecs", is used to help achieve standardization objectives by the U.S. Department of Defense.

Electrical wiring is commonly understood to be an electrical installation for operation by end users within a building, an engineered structure or a designated outdoor location.

It includes the cabling and associated devices such as switches, distribution boards, sockets and light fittings but does not cover the transmission of electrical power to the installation.

The ampere (SI unit symbol: A, dimension symbol: I), often shortened to "amp", is a unit of electric current.

In the International System of Units (SI) the ampere is one of the seven SI base units.

It is named after André-Marie Ampère (1775–1836), French mathematician and physicist, considered the father of electrodynamics.
