How To Choose a Type of Cable?

Selecting the right cable involves a systematic decision-making process to ensure the specific requirements of the intended application are met.
 
Clearly define the project or product’s cabling requirements such as: voltages, currents, signal type, environmental conditions, signal integrity, signal frequencies, RFI susceptibility and emissions, and any relevant regulations or standards. Based on the close definition of functional requirements, select the general type of cable needed. Evaluate factors such as: cable size, insulation material, shielding,
resilience/flexibility, installation, and conductor material. Assess environmental issues that must be tolerated/resisted such as: temperature, moisture, exposure to chemicals, and mechanical stress. Whenever relevant, ensure that the selected cable complies with relevant industry performance standards, quality standards, and regulations. Consider the project’s budget constraints and seek cost-effective options that still meet the technical requirements. Plan the cable path, considering factors like:
distance, bend radii, and installation methods/tools to confirm your selection.

WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN WIRES AND CABLES?

Let’s start with some individual definitions: Wire: A wire is a single conductor made up of an electrically conductive material like aluminum or copper. This conductor can be made up of one strand of material or a group of strands and may be left bare or surrounded by a color-coded sheath. Regardless of the number of […]
