Selecting the appropriate wire and cable products is a critical decision for designers and manufacturers of electrical or electronic equipment. The wide range of products available from various manufacturers underscores the complexity of the decision.
When selecting the right product there are several factors to consider:
Application Requirements: Factors such as voltage, current, temperature and environmental conditions.
Compliance Standards: Ensures the cable meets regulatory approval such as UL.
Material Selection: Conductor materials (copper, Aluminium) and jacket material can offer varying levels of performance.
Size and Guage: Choosing the right size is crucial for optimal performance.
Flexibility and Durability: Important for different applications, such as medical wire which needs to be very thin and durable.
Future Scalability and Maintenance: Choosing wire and cable products are readily available and compatible with future expansions or upgrades.
