According to voltage levels, copper cables can be classified into high-voltage cables, medium-voltage cables, low-voltage cables, and extra-high-voltage cables. Based on the outer covering material, copper cables are divided into plastic cables, rubber cables, oil-immersed cables, and cross-linked cables, among others.

Copper cables can be classified according to different standards.

According to voltage levels, copper cables can be classified into high-voltage cables, medium-voltage cables, low-voltage cables, and extra-high-voltage cables.
According to the outer covering material, copper cables can be classified into plastic cables, rubber cables, oil-immersed cables, and cross-linked cables, among others.
According to their applications, copper cables can be categorized into bare copper wires (cables without insulation or protective sheathing), power cables (primarily used as main feeders in power supply systems), overhead insulated wires (also known as aerial wires, featuring conductors made of aluminum, copper, or aluminum alloy profiles), variable-frequency cables, and special cables designed for unique purposes. These include flame-retardant cables (NH), low-smoke, halogen-free cables (WDZ), fire-resistant cables (ZR), explosion-proof cables (FB), fly-proof cables, termite-resistant cables (FS), and water-blocking cables (ZS), among others.
