Importance of Core Count in Electrical Wiring

2-core cable does not have a grounding wire and is suitable for use with any electrical device that has a non-conductive exterior. However, if the light, lamp, bulb holder, or fitting has a conductive or metallic exterior, it must be connected using a 3-core cable to prevent the risk of electric shock or severe harm.

In essence, cables consist of two live cores and an additional cable. If the device you are connecting needs a grounding connection, then a core cable is necessary. Brass lamp holders always need to be grounded. However, Bakelite and porcelain lamp holders are non-conductive and therefore don't need to be grounded.

The primary distinction between a cable with one core and a cable with multiple cores lies in the number of conductors employed. The level of flexibility inherent in the cable also holds significant importance, with single-core cables exhibiting greater flexibility and adaptability.

wire core transmits double the current of a 2-wire cable naturally, a 4-conductor cable is thicker and costlier in comparison to a single core wire. It may be tempting to opt for the more economical choice, but I strongly recommend prioritizing the quality of the cable over its price.
