Insulation tape (or electrical tape) is a pressure-sensitive tape which is used to insulate electrical wires and other material that conduct electricity, for safety. It can be made of many plastics, but PVC Insulating Tapes are ideal for cable insulation and marking and meet international safety standards. They are flexible and easy to use. They fix easily to irregular shapes and surfaces, making them perfect for automotive repairs. Black insulating tape is the most common, but there are other colours available too. The other colours indicate the voltage level and phase of the wire they are insulating.
