Know How to Choose Cable Conductors for Custom Cable Assemblies!

For a long, the demand for custom cable assemblies has been increasing & has become one of the most important parts of commercial & industrial projects. And so with being an integral part, the designated team makes sure that the wires & cables they use are qualitative, enhances the work of the appliances & the productivity of the project.

Many times, it might also be quite frustrating & tedious too, to select the right cable conductors & so a deep insights study is needed for the perfect cable conductor for your cable assembly.

Why the right cable conductor is essential for custom cable assemblies?

Now, every custom cable assembly used by the appliances requires cables which help in carrying electrical load & these cables are coated with metallic conductors. Till the life of the products, these cables with metallic conductors are useful. Now, this selection of the metallic cable conductors is very important as if ou fail in this, that would be a great disappointment for your project or appliance.

Take for e.g., if your cable conductors are made up using wrong materials, it might break or fail, or oxidized in the field. So as per your needs & requirements, device’s parameters &environmental conditions, you have to choose the connectors.

Along with the above factors, don’t miss out on the cost aspect. So, you need to decide how manyconductors are needs, the size of the conductor & the material i.e. solid, or stranded ones.

Have a glance at the important tips which might help you in choosing the right cable conductor:

1. Material of the Conductors

The material requirements of the conductors depend on the nature of the product. As we all know that gold, copper & silver are good conductors of electricity in comparison to zinc, bronze, brass & nickel. The former conductors will be a bit costlier than the latter but the quality & the result will be great.

Also, now as we go deep into the study, we come across more materials like bare copper & tinned copper. 

And bare copper is more conducive than tinned copper.

And then, not only conductivity is the only factor we need to consider while selecting the conductors, we also need to go through a study regarding the below factors:

• Temperature: High temperatures is an important factor & influences the material of the conductor. Projects with high temperatures zones are suggestible to use copper with nickel plating to sustain the temperature.

• Resistant to Corrosion: The conductor material used should be corrosion resistant. If any environment is with high humidity, then this can damage your cables, as the cables will start to corrosive. For environments with high humidity, tinned copper is better material than the others, to prevent corrosion.

• Cost Factor: This is an important factor for selecting a conducting material, but it’s always advisable to not compromise on the quality & reduce the price. So go for the material, that suits very well your cable assembly.

2. Difference between Stranded Conductors & Solid Conductors

Depending on the application of the meetings, you can select a solid conductor or a stranded conductor. Solid conductor just has a single metallic core & stranded conductor is combination of thin wires & these are twisted, & so this acts as a larger conductor.

In comparison to solid conductors, stranded conductors seems to be more flexible, very easy to install & works for a longer duration, but at the same time, more expensive. Whereas, solid conductors are more durable, rigid & cheap.

So depending on your spending capacity & flexibility, you can select among the two conductors for a better production.

3. Number of Conductors needed

Depending on your appliances or applications, you need to decide the total quantity of conductors to be used.

There is no thumb rule of the usage of number of conductors in the wire, it can be one, two or can even go up to hundred, & in the core of each cable, you will always find a conductor. So depending on the requirements of the project, this can be decided.

The wire used for different categories of power appliances, generally, have three conductors. So it is always suggestible to know your requirements and know the number of circuits connected by cables, & then decide the conductors total number.

4. And the Size of the Conductors

And the last important part you need to consider is the size of the conductors. And on the basis of physical needs & power load needed by the application, we can have an idea of the size of the conductors.

So as per the devices & appliances, the size differs. And the size of the cables is bigger for the machines used in industries as they have the requirements of high power.

So, though this can be a bit lengthy assignment, but worth giving your time, as a great cable conductor, will definitely help in working with the appliance or project with a complete hassle-free. And the best way is to consult the best cable assembly manufacturers in your city & take their help for the same.
