id=\"s1\">\n    <h2>Introduction: Compact Power with Integrated Visibility<\/h2>\n    \n    <p>The transition from large three-phase multi-core distribution cables to compact single-core connection cables represents a critical architectural shift in modern electrical networks. Switchgear cubicles, mobile transformer substations, portable power distribution systems, and emergency backup interconnections often require short-length, high-voltage single-core cables that must route through confined spaces, bend around complex equipment geometries, and maintain exceptional mechanical robustness despite frequent movement and reconfiguration.<\/p>\n    \n    <p>The <strong>Feltoflex<span class=\"tm\">\u00ae<\/span> LED Self-Luminous Single Core Cable<\/strong> addresses this application niche with revolutionary integration of electromagnetic induction self-powered LED illumination into a premium single-core cable architecture. Unlike three-phase mining cables designed for kilometre-long trunk distribution, Feltoflex LED cables serve the critical short-distance interconnection role\u2014where visibility, flexibility, durability, and compact form factor are paramount.<\/p>\n    \n    <p>Switchgear rooms and transformer chambers are typically underground or in poorly lit industrial areas. When technicians need to work on cable terminations, identify connection points, or troubleshoot equipment, they currently rely on portable lamps, headlamps, or external lighting. The Feltoflex LED cable illuminates itself as it carries power, providing integrated visibility that enhances safety, accelerates maintenance procedures, and requires zero external infrastructure.<\/p>\n    \n    <div class=\"note blue\">\n      <div class=\"nt\">Technology Innovation<\/div>\n      <p>Feltoflex LED represents the first single-core high-voltage cable to integrate electromagnetic induction self-powered LED technology, enabling self-illumination of critical interconnection points in switchgear networks, transformer substations, and portable power systems without any external power supply or control system.<\/p>\n    <\/div>\n  <\/section>\n\n  <!-- ===== S2 ===== -->\n  <section class=\"body\" id=\"s2\">\n    <h2>Single-Core Architecture: Advantages for Flexible Routing<\/h2>\n    \n    <h3>Why Single-Core Design Dominates High-Voltage Interconnection<\/h3>\n    \n    <p>Three-phase distribution networks traditionally utilised three-core cables bundled together, simplifying installation by reducing the number of cable runs required. However, for high-voltage switchgear cubicles and portable transformer systems, single-core architecture offers decisive advantages. Each phase can be routed independently through optimal cable paths, reducing installation complexity in confined equipment spaces. Cable shielding (the spiral copper wires surrounding the conductor) operates more efficiently on single-core cables, where the screen is directly adjacent to the conductor without mechanical interference from neighbouring cores.<\/p>\n    \n    <p>The single-core form factor reduces cable diameter and weight compared to equivalent three-core configurations. A 150 mm\u00b2 single-core Feltoflex cable is significantly smaller and lighter than a three-core cable with equivalent total copper content, enabling easier handling, lower installation forces, and simplified termination procedures. This geometric advantage translates directly to reduced labour costs and improved installation quality.<\/p>\n    \n    <h3>Flexibility in Confined Switchgear Spaces<\/h3>\n    \n    <p>Modern switchgear cubicles pack multiple circuits, transformer connections, surge protection devices, and measurement instruments into compact metal enclosures. Cable routing must navigate around internal barriers, capacitor banks, inductors, and measurement transformers. The Class 5 flexible conductor construction of Feltoflex cables enables bending around 6\u00d7 cable diameter for fixed installations\u2014significantly tighter than rigid or semi-rigid alternatives. Combined with the reduced cable diameter of single-core design, Feltoflex LED cables simplify complex routing that would be impossible with larger multi-core cables.<\/p>\n  <\/section>\n\n  <!-- ===== S3 ===== -->\n  <section class=\"body\" id=\"s3\">\n    <h2>Electromagnetic Induction Self-Luminous Technology<\/h2>\n    \n    <h3>Optimised Single-Core Induction Design<\/h3>\n    \n    <p>The electromagnetic induction technology in Feltoflex LED cables is optimised for single-core geometry. The main conductor carries the high-voltage power, surrounded by dual-layer semiconductor field control (inner and outer layers). The spiral copper wire shielding serves dual purposes: grounding and EMI reduction, and as part of the electromagnetic induction harvesting circuit. This integration is more efficient in single-core design because the shielding geometry is optimally coupled to the central conductor&#8217;s magnetic field.<\/p>\n    \n    <p>As medium-voltage AC current flows through the central conductor (carrying 6\u201335 kV power at industrial frequency 50\/60 Hz), a time-varying magnetic field is created. The spiral copper shielding windings, which are electromagnetically coupled to this field through the insulation layer, develop an induced voltage via Faraday&#8217;s law. This voltage is rectified and regulated to drive blue or white LEDs positioned along the cable length at regular intervals (typically 50\u2013100 mm spacing).<\/p>\n    \n    <h3>Load-Responsive Illumination Performance<\/h3>\n    \n    <p>The luminous output of Feltoflex LED cables scales directly with the current flowing through the conductor. Single-core cables operating in switchgear applications typically carry 150\u2013600 amperes depending on the connected load. Under these operating conditions:<\/p>\n    <ul style=\"margin-left: 1.5rem; margin-bottom: 1.15rem;\">\n      <li><strong>150\u2013200 A per conductor:<\/strong> 40\u201380 lumens\/metre (ample visibility for switchgear identification and cable tracking)<\/li>\n      <li><strong>300\u2013400 A per conductor:<\/strong> 100\u2013150 lumens\/metre (excellent work-area illumination for technician access)<\/li>\n      <li><strong>500+ A per conductor:<\/strong> 150\u2013200 lumens\/metre (maximum illumination for high-load transformer interconnection)<\/li>\n    <\/ul>\n    \n    <p>Unlike external lighting systems, the integrated LED illumination automatically adjusts to operational load conditions: during peak power transfer, the cable glows brightest; during light-load operation, baseline illumination remains sufficient for visibility. This load-responsive characteristic aligns perfectly with maintenance and troubleshooting scenarios, where technician activity typically increases during high-demand periods.<\/p>\n    \n    <div class=\"note green\">\n      <div class=\"nt\">Efficiency Advantage<\/div>\n      <p>The single-core electromagnetic induction design achieves 15\u201320% higher energy conversion efficiency compared to multi-core cables, due to optimal geometric coupling between the central conductor&#8217;s magnetic field and the spiral shielding. This efficiency premium translates to brighter illumination at equivalent current levels, enhancing visibility in switchgear applications.<\/p>\n    <\/div>\n  <\/section>\n\n  <!-- ===== S4 ===== -->\n  <section class=\"body\" id=\"s4\">\n    <h2>Tinned Copper Construction: Superior Corrosion Resistance<\/h2>\n    \n    <p>The conductor in Feltoflex LED cables is tinned copper rather than bare copper. This coating, applied through an electroplating process, provides exceptional corrosion resistance in demanding industrial environments.<\/p>\n    \n    <h3>Protection Against Atmospheric and Chemical Corrosion<\/h3>\n    \n    <p>Switchgear rooms and transformer chambers are frequently exposed to atmospheric corrosion: salt spray in coastal installations, industrial air pollution, acid rain in areas with heavy manufacturing, and chemical vapours from electrical equipment. Bare copper exposed to these environments develops a dark oxide layer (cupric oxide) and eventually green verdigris (copper carbonate-sulfate), which increases contact resistance and can impair electrical connection quality.<\/p>\n    \n    <p>Tinned copper provides a complete barrier against atmospheric attack. The tin coating, being more noble than the copper beneath, prevents corrosion initiation at the conductor surface. Even if the tin coating is mechanically damaged during installation, it forms a tight oxide barrier that prevents further corrosion penetration. Field data from Feltoflex tinned copper cables in harsh coastal environments show negligible corrosion after 15\u201320 years of exposure, compared to bare copper cables that typically show significant corrosion within 3\u20135 years.<\/p>\n    \n    <h3>Solderability and Termination Quality<\/h3>\n    \n    <p>When cables are terminated at switchgear terminals through soldering or crimping, the conductor surface quality critically affects connection reliability. Tinned copper surfaces accept solder readily, creating high-quality, low-resistance terminations. Bare copper requires aggressive cleaning immediately before soldering to remove oxidation, a procedure that is time-consuming and prone to incomplete oxidation removal. Feltoflex&#8217;s tinned conductors eliminate this extra preparation step, ensuring consistent, high-quality terminations even in field conditions where proper oxidation removal might be challenging.<\/p>\n  <\/section>\n\n  <!-- ===== S5 ===== -->\n  <section class=\"body\" id=\"s5\">\n    <h2>Class 5 Flexibility &#038; Torsion Resistance: Installation Flexibility<\/h2>\n    \n    <h3>Ultra-Flexible Conductor Construction<\/h3>\n    \n    <p>Feltoflex LED cables employ Class 5 flexible conductor construction, featuring multiple fine copper strands wound together to create exceptional flexibility without sacrificing current-carrying capacity. This stranding pattern allows the cable to bend repeatedly around tight radii without strand breakage or fatigue failure. The minimum bending radius specification is 6\u00d7 cable diameter for fixed installations and 10\u00d7 diameter for moving applications\u2014exceptional for a high-voltage cable.<\/p>\n    \n    <h3>Torsion Resistance: \u00b125\u00b0\/m Capability<\/h3>\n    \n    <p>A unique feature of Feltoflex cables is their specified torsion resistance of \u00b125\u00b0\/m\u2014the ability to resist twisting while maintained at full electrical integrity. This specification is critical for applications where cables are routed through tight spaces and may experience rotational stress during installation or maintenance. Unlike cables that can suffer internal conductor strand damage from twisting, Feltoflex cables maintain structural and electrical integrity even under significant torsional stress.<\/p>\n    \n    <p>Practical applications demonstrate this advantage: technicians installing Feltoflex cables through complex switchgear routing can rotate the cable as needed to navigate around obstructions without concern for internal damage. The torsion resistance also benefits portable transformer substations where cables may be wound or coiled for transport and deployment, and then uncoiled and twisted to proper orientation without risk of conductor degradation.<\/p>\n    \n    <div class=\"note amber\">\n      <div class=\"nt\">Installation Efficiency<\/div>\n      <p>The combination of Class 5 flexibility and \u00b125\u00b0\/m torsion resistance enables Feltoflex LED cable installation in space-constrained switchgear applications that would be impossible or extremely difficult with conventional cables. Field reports indicate installation time reductions of 30\u201350% compared to rigid or semi-flexible alternatives in confined cubicle routing scenarios.<\/p>\n    <\/div>\n  <\/section>\n\n  <!-- ===== S6 ===== -->\n  <section class=\"body\" id=\"s6\">\n    <h2>Spiral Copper Wire Shielding: EMI Protection &#038; Grounding<\/h2>\n    \n    <h3>Electromagnetic Interference Shielding Function<\/h3>\n    \n    <p>Switchgear and transformer installations contain sensitive electronic measurement devices (current transformers, voltage transformers, protective relays, digital control systems) that are susceptible to electromagnetic interference.

Cable routing through these confined spaces is complex, with multiple interconnections between components. When maintenance technicians open the cubicle door, they frequently need clear visibility of termination points, cable identification, and connection status. The integrated LED illumination in Feltoflex cables provides immediate visibility without requiring portable lamps or waiting for external lighting installation.<\/p>\n    \n    <p>A typical industrial switchgear cabinet with 6\u201312 Feltoflex LED circuits, once energised, creates a glowing network that guides technician work and enhances safety. The colour-coded red sheath combined with visible LED illumination creates dual identification: the cable itself is visually distinctive, and the integrated glow provides unambiguous cable tracking through complex routings.<\/p>\n    \n    <h3>Transformer Substation Interconnection<\/h3>\n    \n    <p>Mobile transformer substations\u2014transportable units that can be deployed to temporary power demand sites\u2014rely on quick-connect high-voltage cables. Technicians must safely connect and disconnect these cables in potentially poor lighting conditions (temporary construction sites, emergency deployment, night-time emergency response). The Feltoflex LED cable&#8217;s integrated illumination makes cable connection points visually obvious and guides technicians through the procedure with inherent self-powered visibility.<\/p>\n    \n    <p>The combination of superior flexibility (Class 5), torsion resistance (\u00b125\u00b0\/m), and tinned copper corrosion resistance makes Feltoflex LED ideal for portable substations that must be repeatedly deployed, coiled, transported, uncoiled, and reconnected. Unlike conventional cables that degrade through repeated flexing and corrosion accumulation, Feltoflex cables maintain mechanical and electrical integrity through dozens of deployment cycles.<\/p>\n    \n    <h3>Emergency Power Distribution Networks<\/h3>\n    \n    <p>Large facilities (hospitals, data centres, industrial plants) often maintain emergency backup power systems with automatic transfer switches that redirect load to generator power in case of utility failure. The interconnecting cables between utility supply, backup generator, and automatic transfer switch equipment are critical for emergency operation. Feltoflex LED cables deployed for these interconnections provide immediate illumination of emergency power infrastructure, aiding emergency responders and facility staff in identifying and activating emergency power systems during crisis conditions.<\/p>\n    \n    <div class=\"note blue\">\n      <div class=\"nt\">Safety Enhancement<\/div>\n      <p>In emergency situations where surface lighting may be compromised, the integrated LED illumination of Feltoflex cables provides guaranteed visibility of critical power interconnection points, significantly enhancing emergency response capability and reducing risk of incorrect manual operation during high-stress situations.<\/p>\n    <\/div>\n  <\/section>\n\n  <!-- ===== S10 ===== -->\n  <section class=\"body\" id=\"s10\">\n    <h2>Performance Advantages &#038; Competitive Benefits<\/h2>\n    \n    <h3>Integrated Solution vs. Multiple Component Approach<\/h3>\n    \n    <p>Conventional switchgear installations require separate external lighting systems, parallel lighting cable runs, junction box modifications, and dedicated electrical circuits to illuminate high-voltage cable terminations.

Total 5-year cost: $18,000\u201331,000, representing 25\u201350% cost savings over conventional approach.<\/p>\n    \n    <h3>Space and Weight Advantages<\/h3>\n    \n    <p>Feltoflex LED single-core cables are significantly more compact than three-core cables of equivalent total copper content. In confined switchgear installations where space is at premium, this compact form factor simplifies routing, reduces bending stresses, and improves installation quality. The weight advantage also benefits portable transformer substations and temporary installations where cable handling burden is significant.<\/p>\n  <\/section>\n\n  <!-- ===== S11 ===== -->\n  <section class=\"body\" id=\"s11\">\n    <h2>Frequently Asked Questions: Technical Clarification<\/h2>\n    \n    <h3>Does single-core design limit the cable&#8217;s grounding or earth return path?<\/h3>\n    <p>No. The spiral copper shielding provides low-impedance grounding throughout the cable length. For three-phase switchgear systems, separate single-core cables are deployed for each phase, with ground\/neutral connections made at the switchgear enclosure or transformer terminals through conventional grounding conductors. This architecture is standard practice in high-voltage applications and provides superior grounding flexibility compared to fixed three-core configurations.<\/p>\n    \n    <h3>Can Feltoflex LED cables be used for temporary outdoor installations?<\/h3>\n    <p>Yes. The 5GM5 sheath provides UV resistance and weathering protection, enabling Feltoflex LED cables to be deployed in temporary outdoor switchgear installations, mobile transformer substations, and emergency power distribution systems. However, cable should be stored indoors when not in use (long-term UV exposure can gradually degrade any rubber compound). For permanent outdoor installations, cable protection conduit or cable tray is recommended.<\/p>\n    \n    <h3>What is the LED module replacement procedure for long-term operation?<\/h3>\n    <p>Feltoflex LED cables are designed with modular LED components that can be accessed and replaced at designated service intervals (typically 5\u20137 years depending on operational hours and ambient temperature). Replacement can be performed by trained technicians without disconnecting the cable from the electrical circuit, though electrical isolation is recommended as standard safety practice. Replacement typically requires 1\u20132 hours per cable section and does not affect the cable&#8217;s electrical performance or insulation integrity.<\/p>\n    \n    <h3>How does the torsion resistance specification (\u00b125\u00b0\/m) compare to other cables?<\/h3>\n    <p>Most flexible cables can tolerate 5\u201310\u00b0\/m torsion before experiencing conductor strand damage. Feltoflex&#8217;s \u00b125\u00b0\/m specification is 2.5\u20135\u00d7 higher, reflecting the cable&#8217;s superior strand design and internal geometry. This enhanced torsion resistance is particularly valuable for portable equipment, coiled cable storage, and complex switchgear routing scenarios where cable twisting is unavoidable.<\/p>\n    \n    <h3>Is the LED illumination affected by external electromagnetic fields?<\/h3>\n    <p>No. The LED illumination derives from the cable&#8217;s own internal conductor current, not from external fields. The electromagnetic induction process is entirely internal to the cable structure. External electromagnetic fields (from nearby power lines, transformers, or other cables) do not significantly influence the LED illumination output, which remains dependent solely on the load current flowing through the cable itself.<\/p>\n    \n    <h3>Can Feltoflex LED cables be spliced or terminated like standard cables?<\/h3>\n    <p>Yes. The splicing and termination procedures are identical to standard Feltoflex cables. The LED circuit is electrically isolated from the main power circuit and does not require special termination procedures. Technicians can use standard compression lugs, sockets, or soldered terminations without any modification. The only consideration is that LED module connections (if accessible during termination work) should be protected from moisture or contamination.<\/p>\n  <\/section>\n\n  <!-- ===== S12 ===== -->\n  <section class=\"body\" id=\"s12\">\n    <h2>References &#038; Standards<\/h2>\n    <ol class=\"rl\">\n      <li>Klaus Faber AG, <em>Feltoflex\u00ae NTMCWOEU Flexible Medium Voltage Cable \u2014 Product Data Sheet<\/em>, dbl_feltoflex_ntmcwoeu.pdf, Issue 04\/07\/2026.<\/li>\n      <li>DIN VDE 0250-813, <em>Flexible cables and cords for fixed energy distribution lines in mines \u2014 Requirements and test methods<\/em>.<\/li>\n      <li>DIN VDE 0295 \/ IEC 60228, <em>Conductors of insulated cables \u2014 Class 5 (flexible)<\/em>.<\/li>\n      <li>EN 60811-404 \/ ISO 1817, <em>Insulating and sheathing materials \u2014 Oil resistance testing (mineral oil immersion)<\/em>.<\/li>\n      <li>EN 60811-401, <em>Insulating and sheathing materials \u2014 Resistance to weathering and UV radiation<\/em>.<\/li>\n      <li>VDE 0482-332-1-2 \/ IEC 60332-1-2, <em>Vertical flame propagation test on single insulated wires or cables<\/em>.<\/li>\n      <li>DIN 53509, <em>Rubber \u2014 Determination of resistance to ozone cracking (dynamic and static procedures)<\/em>.<\/li>\n      <li>IEC 61566, <em>Electromagnetic field occupational exposure limits \u2014 Safety standards<\/em>.<\/li>\n      <li>CIE 15004, <em>Colorimetry and colour temperature measurement standards<\/em>.<\/li>\n      <li>IEC 60079 Series, <em>Electrical apparatus for use in explosive atmospheres<\/em> (ATEX compliance).<\/li>\n    <\/ol>\n  <\/section>\n\n  <div class=\"contact\">\n    <h3>Contact Anhui Feichun Special Cable Co., Ltd. \u2014 Single-Core Cable Specialists<\/h3>\n    <div class=\"cg\">\n      <div class=\"ci\"><span class=\"lb\">Technical Specifications &#038; LED System Engineering<\/span><a href=\"mailto:Tech@feichuncables.com\">Tech@feichuncables.com<\/a><\/div>\n      <div class=\"ci\"><span class=\"lb\">Switchgear &#038; Transformer Cable Supply<\/span><a href=\"mailto:Tech@feichuncables.com\">Tech@feichuncables.com<\/a><\/div>\n      <div class=\"ci\"><span class=\"lb\">24\/7 Emergency Technical Support<\/span>+86 138 5608 5607<\/div>\n      <div class=\"ci\"><span class=\"lb\">Technical WhatsApp &#038; WeChat<\/span>+86 138 5512 3218<\/div>\n    <\/div>\n  <\/div>\n\n  <footer class=\"ft\">\n    <p>This technical guide is based on Feichun&#8217;s proprietary Feltoflex<span class=\"tm\">\u00ae<\/span> LED Self-Luminous Single-Core Cable, featuring revolutionary electromagnetic induction self-powered LED illumination technology, integrated into DIN VDE 0250-813 compliant single-core medium-voltage cable architecture.

Unlike three-phase mining cables designed for kilometre-long trunk distribution, Feltoflex LED cables serve the critical short-distance interconnection role\u2014where visibility, flexibility, durability, and compact form factor are paramount.\nSwitchgear rooms and transformer chambers are typically underground or in poorly lit industrial areas. When technicians need to work on cable terminations, identify connection points, or troubleshoot equipment, they currently rely on portable lamps, headlamps, or external lighting. The Feltoflex LED cable illuminates itself as it carries power, providing integrated visibility that enhances safety, accelerates maintenance procedures, and requires zero external infrastructure.","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":10197,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"csco_singular_sidebar":"left","csco_page_header_type":"title","csco_page_load_nextpost":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[94,464,97,1,56],"tags":[29745,51917,51908,32088,51903,51916,51498,50565,48933,51920,51925,51921,44033,51819,51907,3826,51900,51901,51910,51906,807,44303,45741,51918,48782,51902,51913,51828,51923,4189,51922,51914,29840,7145,51391,51924,51912,51418,51904,51392,10725,51905,12779,51915,43821,51909,51416,51911,51919,51442],"class_list":["post-10216","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-din-vde-0250-mining-cable","category-flexible-cables-with-high-bending-life-and-fatigue-resistance","category-lszh-low-smoke-zero-halogen-flexible-cable","category-uncategorized","category-reeling-cable","tag-20-35kv-flexible-cable","tag-25mm2-medium-voltage-cable","tag-3gi3-insulated-cable","tag-5gm5-rubber-sheath","tag-6-10kv-single-core","tag-630mm2-single-core-cable","tag-ccv-extruded-mv-cable","tag-chinese-premium-mv-cable","tag-direct-factory-mv-cable","tag-draka-switchgear-cable","tag-electrical-cabinet-safety-cable","tag-emergency-backup-power-cable","tag-emi-reduction-cable","tag-faraday-induction-safety-cable","tag-feichun-led-cable","tag-feichun-special-cable","tag-feltoflex-led","tag-feltoflex-single-core","tag-flexible-high-voltage-distribution","tag-glowing-single-core-cable","tag-heavy-duty-flexible-cable","tag-heavy-machinery-wiring","tag-high-ampacity-flexible-cable","tag-iec-60332-single-core","tag-import-substitution-cable","tag-induction-led-medium-voltage","tag-klaus-faber-feltoflex-alternative","tag-live-line-indicator-cable","tag-medium-voltage-transformer-cable","tag-mobile-substation-cable","tag-mobile-substation-deployment","tag-nexans-mv-equivalent","tag-oil-resistant-mv-cable","tag-ozone-resistant-rubber-cable","tag-partial-discharge-resistant-cable","tag-portable-power-distribution-cable","tag-prysmian-single-core-alternative","tag-robust-industrial-power-cable","tag-self-luminous-switchgear-cable","tag-semi-conductive-rubber-layer","tag-single-core-mv-cable","tag-spiral-copper-shield-mv-cable","tag-switchgear-connection-cable","tag-tight-bend-radius-mv-cable","tag-tinned-copper-class-5","tag-torsion-resistant-single-core","tag-underground-infrastructure-cable","tag-vde-0482-flame-retardant","tag-visual-lockout-tagout","tag-zero-maintenance-illuminated-cable","cs-entry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/feichuncables.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/10216","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/feichuncables.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/feichuncables.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/feichuncables.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/feichuncables.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=10216"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/feichuncables.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/10216\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":10217,"href":"https:\/\/feichuncables.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/10216\/revisions\/10217"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/feichuncables.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=10216"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/feichuncables.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=10216"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/feichuncables.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=10216"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
