Can I Use Duct Tape Instead Of Electrical Tape
Camila Farah
Indeed it s recommended not to use it as a substitute in electrical wiring applications.
Because standard duct tape does not offer the same fire resistant properties found in electrical tape don t use it as a substitute in electrical wiring applications. Duct tape is also more cypionat 250 durable and strong when compared with electrical tape. Duct tape is a cloth tape with a plastic backer as long as you are working with low voltage control sensor cables it will keep the conductors apart. Duct tape does not offer the same fire resistant property that is generally found in electrical tape.
I d avoid wrapping the duct tape. Not only does duct tape not wrap snugly enough around wires but it also has cloth fibers in its backing which can potentially be a fire hazard.
