How to Visually Identify the Appearance of Wires and Cables

We can identify from the following 5 aspects.
​How to visually identify the appearance of wires and cables
1. PVC sheath: The surface can see the regular "unevenness" of the braided mesh inside, indicating that the processing technology is good and there will be no relative slippage, which is a good cable. The appearance is smooth, and the "unevenness" of the compressed braid is not visible, and the jacket has a loose feeling with the hand. It is a poor cable;
2. Check the screen of the shielding layer: whether the number of the screen is enough for copper, check the solderability, tinned copper wire scraping to see if it is copper wire, the hardness of the aluminum-magnesium alloy wire is significantly greater than the copper wire; the screen is sparse and distributed Uneven, not tightly wrapped with insulation, etc. are poor cables;
3. Check the core wire: diameter-SYV cable is 0.78-0.8mm, SYWV cable is 1.0mm; recently an SYV75-5 core wire diameter is 1.0mm cable, the characteristic impedance of this cable is definitely not 75 Ohm, not applied to 75-ohm transmission system;
4. Check the adhesion force of the core wire and the insulation layer: Cut the insulation layer obliquely and pull the core wire away in the stripping direction to see if the core wire and the insulation layer are bonded with process materials; good cables have a large adhesion force, poor The cable is not contaminated;
5. Longitudinal tensile test: take one meter of cable, peel off the core wire in layers, insulation layer, shielding layer, outer house, and leave each 10 cm long. The method is: two hands hold the adjacent two layers of the cable and pull in the opposite direction; the good cable generally cannot be pulled by force, and the poor cable can be easily pulled out without much effort-the elevator cable is very important, many so-called "Elevator special cables" have problems in this regard.

  SAE J1939 (hereinafter referred to as J1939) is the recommended standard of the American Society of Automotive Engineers (SAE). It is controlled and communicated by the "Truck and Bus Electrical & Electronics Committee" (Track & Bus Electrical & Electronics Committee). Developed and written by the Track & Bus Control and Communications Network Subcommittee. J1939 has become a recognized industry standard and choice for commercial vehicle diagnostics and data communication heavy, off-highway, truck, bus, ship propulsion, power generation, industrial pumping, construction, and material handling machinery. J1939 is a high-level protocol network (CAN) based on Controller Area. It is widely used by the diesel engine industry to provide diagnostic data such as vehicle engine speed, temperature, oil temperature, exhaust emissions, and other customizable options. J1939 connectors are divided into black and green rubber cores, but do you know the difference between t...

Benefits of overmolded connectors and wiring harnesses?

What is overmolding? In short, overmolding is an injection molding process in which two or more materials are used to combine a harness wire and a connector to form a single part, and the cable assembly is placed in a mold. In this process, the first material substrate will be covered by other materials. The overmolding process requires the use of insert molding (single injection) or multiple injection molding techniques to cover rigid plastic parts with TPU layers or other overmolding materials. So what are the benefits of the connector and harness overmolding process? Benefits of overmolding connectors and harnesses: 1. Increase the flexibility of the cable harness exit so that most of the movement between the cable harness and the connector occurs at the cable harness exit. 2. Provide abrasion resistance, impact resistance or impact resistance. 3. Fix the cable assembly by sealing the assembly in plastic. 4. Provide 360 degree strain relief and increase tension. 5. Cr...

​Cars are equipped with diagnostics tool or obd-ii ports

Modern cars have the capacity of a few computers, are tooled with software that contains millions of lines of programming code and produce gigabytes of data, but they are still different from connected cars. ​ A smart vehicle is able to optimize its performance to reduce fuel consumption, show the best path to follow taking into account current traffic and weather conditions, detect errors in the engine and collect information data to negotiate lower insurance rates. Most cars and light trucks are equipped with on-board diagnostics or an OBD II port that provides access to data from the engine control unit (ECU). To get the information you need to plug in an external device. The OBD-II specifications provide a standardized hardware interface - a female 16-pin (2x8) J1962 connector, so a single external device can be used for most car models. It also should have an Internet connection to transfer the collected data. OBD-II connects to the Internet, and generally needs to use th...
