01818.44.01 Cables, Wires

Multiple Conductor Cables are generally used to carry power and/or data throughout a range of commercial and industrial applications. The 01818.44.01 is a low- voltage (<600V) cabled harness which has been designed for situations which require multiple conductor cables due to limited space, or where efficient interconnective wiring is required. It is typically used in military, aerospace, medical, robotics, automotive, and energy & power applications.

Multiple conductor cables are typically constructed with multiple, bundled wires, but the 01818.44.01 contains a unique, single, solid core cable. This cable is made of a metal alloy, typically copper, which is thicker than the common stranded type, providing a solid, continuous connection from one end to the other. The most common type of multiple conductor cable for use in the 01818.44.01 application field is the 4-conductor wire harness.

In the most common application fields for these multiple conductor cables, the 01818.44.01 is used as a harness to interconnect different components such as sensors, relays, switches, or circuits. For example, the 01818.44.01 could be used to interconnect a sensor to a relay, a switch to a circuit, or multiple circuits together. These cables are typically used for such industrial-type applications as circuit protection, current measurement, voltage measurement, control engineering, and automation systems.

The working principle of the 01818.44.01 multiple conductor cable is fairly straightforward; it provides a low- voltage (<600V) path for the transfer of current from one component to another. When the proper amount of current is applied to the harness, the conductor core will transfer the current while providing a secure physical connection between the two pieces of equipment. The conductor core is usually surrounded by a flexible, insulated jacket that provides additional protection from damage. This jacket helps eliminate any possible hazards that could arise from electrical contact with the metal wire when the current is flowing.

Finally, the 01818.44.01 multiple conductor cables are also very easy to install and terminate. The flex jacket allows for easy installation and the conductor core is solid, which helps minimize the need for heat-shrink tubing or soldering when terminating the harness. This makes installation and maintenance very simple and cost-effective.

In conclusion, the 01818.44.01 multiple conductor cable is a reliable and efficient electrical harness that is used in a variety of commercial, industrial, and medical applications. It provides a secure and continuous interconnection of various components, is very easy to install and terminate, and provides protection from potential electrical hazards. This type of electrical harness has proven to be a valuable addition to many applications, offering a reliable, cost-effective solution for many complicated wiring tasks.
