Can we use same copper cable for both AC & DC power.
Answer Posted / deepak mishra
it basically depends on area of aplication suppose in dc
transmission line we are using cu cable but for same
voltage in ac transmission we require more cross sectional
area as there is skin effect and lossed are more. while in
simple circuit like lighting we can use same cu wire.

I just purchased a 4 position cam switch to be used to operate a 3-speed blower motor. The motor is a 10 amp motor and has 3 wires that are used to control speed. The cam switch was rated at 660V 20 amps but when I received it, I noticed that it has AC-15 operational current rating (Ie) of 4/5 amps. If I am reading the label correctly. the 4/5 amps is related to 440v/220V (Ue). Other ratings are AC-3: 5.5A, AC2: 7.5A and AC-4: 1.5A. My questions are 1) Is it safe to use this switch with the motor I have 2) what is the difference between the 20 amp Ith ratting and the Ie operational ratings?
