The Vietnamese market is increasingly seeing many electric cable brands with different characteristics and prices. To choose the best electric wire today, please follow our following summary.
Criteria for evaluating the best electric wires today

There are many criteria to evaluate a type of electric wire or a brand of electric cable. You can refer to the basic elements as follows.
Safety factor
- Insulating ability: EVN recommends that in all cases, priority should be given to choosing insulated conductors instead of bare wires. Therefore, insulation layer is one of the top criteria when choosing electric wire. The insulation of the power cord must be free of cracks and suitable for the temperature of the operating environment.
- Load capacity: The wire core is mainly responsible for transmitting electricity, so this part must have the appropriate load-bearing capacity to limit wire heating, leading to short circuits and fires.
- Fire resistance: In the event of an electrical incident, electrical wires need to have effective fire resistance properties or ensure the ability to conduct in extreme temperature conditions to provide the necessary power for the emergency power system.
- Standard compliance: Each type of electric cable is designed and manufactured according to one or more certain international/national standards. Complying with these standards not only ensures system safety but also limits legal risks. Prioritize choosing electrical wires that meet standards such as IEC/EN, UL, TCVN…
Technical factors
Technical factors directly affect the performance and electrical transmission ability of electric cables.
- Diameter and cross section: It is necessary to calculate the cross-section and diameter of the wire in accordance with the total capacity of equipment in the electrical network. Avoid choosing a wire cross-section that is too small, which can easily cause overload, while a cross-section that is too large can cause waste.
- Number of cores and core material: Multi-core electrical wires meet the transmission requirements of high-power equipment, but the initial investment cost is quite high. In contrast, low-core electrical wires save installation costs but have limited load-carrying capacity. In addition, copper cores have better conductivity than aluminum, however, they are more expensive and heavier. Therefore, when choosing electrical wires for the system, it is necessary to ensure appropriate factors in both the number of cores and the core material.
- Heat resistance: This factor determines the installation environment of the electric cable. For example, PVC electrical wire has a standard temperature of about 70 degrees Celsius, XLPE electrical wire can withstand higher temperatures of 90 degrees Celsius.
- Flexibility: Including the ability to bend, stretch, and resist breaking of electrical wires, directly affecting the installation environment.
Quality factor
Electric cables need to be selected from famous brands and provided by reputable distributors in the market to ensure full stamps, labels, CQ, CO certifications, especially attractive price, discount and warranty policies.
Aesthetic factors
Electrical wires are an indispensable part of all current projects. Therefore, in addition to technical factors, safety, and aesthetics of electric wires, we also need to pay attention.
You should choose electrical wires with colors, sizes, shapes… that match the overall color of the project and installation space. Avoid messy, confusing connections or choosing wires that are too big or too small compared to the wiring area to ensure aesthetics.
The best type of electric wire available today

To evaluate the best performance of electrical wires, many aspects listed above need to be considered. However, the market today has some of the most popular and popular types of electrical wires including:
- Single wire: The wire has only one hard or soft copper conductor, has little power loss, saves costs, and is suitable for simple electrical systems.
- Double power cord: Consists of 2 soft copper conductive cores, covered by 1 to 2 insulating layers, ensuring better transmission ability than single wire, so it is commonly used in electrical panel cabinets or connecting electrical equipment in the home.
- Fire-resistant and fire-retardant cables: Has a high heat-resistant XLPE insulation layer, suitable for installation in public buildings, commercial centers or areas at risk of fire and explosion to limit the possibility of fire spreading and ensure power supply for emergency power systems.
- Underground electric cables: Specially designed with multiple layers of protection to suit underground environments in areas where overhead wiring is not feasible. Underground cables are the optimal solution for transporting electricity while still ensuring urban aesthetics.
