Medium rate voltage connectors especially cable and wire are the power transmitters most often used in the commercial, industrial and electrical industries.
Medium voltage wire introduction
Nowadays, these products are used for thermostat devices and temperature controllers.
Standard voltage values for MV (medium voltage) cables are between 5 kV and 35 kV, but this range may vary depending on the manufacturer and standard.
MV-90 cables and MV-105 cables are rated up to 90°C and 105°C respectively and are the two most common designations.
Medium voltage cables are available in a variety of styles and their basic structure and common uses should be understood before purchase.
Medium voltage cable for thermostat
Unlike low voltage thermostats that control heating and air conditioning systems, base plate heaters use a mains voltage thermostat installed as part of a full voltage circuit to heat the heater.
The thermostat can be mounted directly on the heater itself, or it can be wall mounted so that the circuit wires go through the thermostat first to the base plate heater.
The new mains voltage thermostat is connected as part of the new base heater.
Thermostats can also wear out and need to be replaced.
Regardless of where it is located, connecting a line voltage thermostat to an electric baseboard heater is a relatively easy task.
The line voltage thermostat for the baseboard heater is really just a variable switch that is mounted on the circuit from the breaker panel to the baseboard heater.
The device works in the same way as a dimmer providing variable control to a light bulb.
Basic line voltage thermostats use simple rotary knobs, but there are more advanced electronically programmable models.
Although programmable thermostats offer more control options, they are wired in the same way as regular rotary thermostats.
Mains voltage thermostats can control a pedestal heater or several heaters connected to each other.
A thermostat works by measuring the room temperature and controlling the amount of current in the wires leading to the heater.
Most baseboard heating systems use 240V circuits, but 120V heaters can also be used.
They are often used to provide extra heat to a single room, which is also provided by the central heating system.
Medium voltage wire for thermostat
The low voltage cable and wire are mostly used in the thermostat for temperature control but in some of these devices, the medium voltage comes in handy too.
To keep the temperature of the system within a certain area and range, they use a device called a thermostat.
The temperature maintenance function is performed by controlling the flow of thermal energy into or out of the system.
Generally speaking, a thermostat is an automatic electrical controller used to regulate the temperature of an enclosed space.

Typically, this function is connected to cooling or heating equipment, so by disconnecting and connecting the equipment, it automatically keeps the room at a set temperature.
Now, according to the above, when the temperature of the unit reaches the set point, the thermostat performs its task, which is to stop and disconnect the circuit of the unit, and when the temperature goes from 3 to 5 degrees Celsius, if the set point drops, it will reconnect the circuit, so the unit will turn on and start working.
Thermostats are used to regulate the temperature of liquids, gases and solids in different parts of a heating or cooling installation, as we will explain below:
- Construction sector: The construction sector, including temperature control for central heating and air conditioning systems, coolers and fan convectors, etc.
- Industrial sector: including greenhouses, furnaces, boilers, etc.
- Household appliances segment: washing machines, frying pans, electric samovars, dishwashers, electric ovens, electric water heaters, and gas water heaters.
