What type of applications is this cable best suited for?
It is designed for general purpose, low-voltage applications in automotive and marine environments, such as side and tail lights, and indicators.
What are the dimensions of the cable?
The cable has a total conductor area of 0.65mm² and an outer diameter of 2.3mm.
Does this cable meet industry standards?
Yes, all Connect automotive cables meet current and relevant European and British standards, including ISO6722:2006 Class B.
What is the operating temperature range for this cable?
The cable is capable of withstanding temperatures up to 70°C.
Can this cable be used for higher voltage systems?
No, this cable is specifically designed for low-voltage automotive and marine DC applications.
What does 'single core' mean?
Single core means the cable contains one conductor wire, making it suitable for simpler circuits.
Troubleshooting
No power to connected component
Check for a secure connection at both ends of the cable. Verify the cable's continuity using a multimeter. Ensure the circuit's fuse is intact and the power source is active. Confirm the cable's current rating is not exceeded.
Intermittent connection
Inspect for loose connections, particularly at terminals. Ensure the cable is not being stressed or kinked. Check for any damage to the insulation that might be causing shorts.
Cable feels hot during operation
This indicates the current rating may be exceeded. Immediately disconnect power and assess the load. Use a thicker gauge cable or a different wiring solution if the current draw is too high for this cable.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Durable construction suitable for automotive and marine environments.
- Meets relevant European and British standards.
- Easy to work with due to its flexibility.
- Comes on a convenient mini reel for storage and use.
Cons
- Limited to low-voltage applications.
- Specific 5.75 amp current rating may not be suitable for all high-power circuits.
- PVC insulation offers basic protection, not suitable for extreme abrasion or chemical resistance.
Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions
Setup:
- Measure and Cut: Unwind the required length from the mini reel and cut cleanly using appropriate wire cutters.
- Strip Insulation: Carefully strip approximately 5-10mm of the PVC insulation from the end of the cable using a wire stripper tool.
- Connect: Terminate the exposed copper conductors using appropriate connectors (e.g., crimp terminals, solder lugs) suitable for stranded copper wire and the intended application.
- Route and Secure: Route the cable away from moving parts, sharp edges, and excessive heat sources. Secure the cable using cable ties or clips.
Compatibility:
- Voltage: Suitable for low-voltage DC systems (e.g., 12V, 24V) commonly found in automotive and marine applications.
- Current: Maximum continuous current rating is 5.75 amps. Ensure your application does not exceed this rating.
- Environment: Designed for temperatures up to 70°C and general automotive/marine use.
Care:
- Inspection: Periodically inspect the cable for any signs of damage, fraying, or wear, especially in high-vibration areas.
- Cleaning: Clean the cable with a dry or slightly damp cloth if necessary. Avoid harsh chemicals or solvents, which could degrade the PVC insulation.
- Protection: Ensure the cable remains protected from physical damage and extreme environmental conditions beyond its specified ratings.
