What is Ordinary Duty PVC cable used for?

What’s the difference between ordinary duty and heavy duty flex?
Ordinary duty flex has a thinner sheath and is best for indoor, low-stress applications. Heavy duty is better suited for high-wear, oily, or outdoor conditions.
Can I use these cables for permanent installations?
