In North America, the installation type for low voltage cables is more commonly found in overhead and underground installations compared to submarine installations. Overhead installations involve the placement of cables on utility poles or other overhead structures, while underground installations involve burying the cables in conduits or trenches underground. These installation methods are typically more cost-effective and practical for the majority of low voltage applications in residential, commercial, and industrial settings. Submarine installations, which refer to cables laid underwater for specific purposes such as offshore power transmission or submarine communication networks, are less common in comparison. However, it's important to note that the distribution of installation types may vary depending on specific regional factors and projects.

Homeowners and residents are significant end users of low voltage systems in North America. They rely on these systems for lighting, HVAC control, security systems, home automation, audiovisual setups, and other household applications. Industrial end users such as manufacturing plants, warehouses, and industrial facilities utilize low voltage systems for power distribution, control systems, automation, machinery operation, and process control. Infrastructure developments, including highways, bridges, tunnels, airports, railways, and public facilities, also require low voltage systems. These projects rely on low voltage installations for lighting, power distribution, communication networks, surveillance systems, and control systems. While copper is the predominant material for low voltage cables in North America, there is also a growing interest in alternative materials such as aluminum and fiber optics. Aluminum, being less expensive than copper, is sometimes used in certain applications where cost is a significant factor, although it has slightly higher resistance and requires larger conductor sizes to achieve comparable performance.

The COVID-19 pandemic caused disruptions in supply chains, affecting the availability of raw materials, components, and finished products for the low voltage industry in North America. Factory shutdowns, transportation restrictions, and trade disruptions led to delays in production and distribution, impacting the supply of low voltage products.
