Rectangular Cable Assemblies are a type of electrical wiring typically used in a variety of environments where power needs to be provided in a safe and efficient fashion. As the name suggests, they consist of a rectangular outer jacket that contains two or more wires that are then connected to the necessary components or devices. This type of assembly provides a number of advantages over traditional round or flat cables. While they may be more expensive, they are more flexible, can be used in a variety of ways, and are more reliable when it comes to providing long-term power.

16-012-102 Application Field and Working Principle

The 16-012-102 is a type of Rectangular Cable Assembly that is designed to be used in industrial and commercial applications. This particular assembly is rated for a total current of 45 amps. The general purpose of such a design is to provide power and connect two or more devices or components via a safe and reliable wiring medium. The use of Rectangular Cable Assemblies eliminates the concern of any type of short-circuiting, as all of the wires within the assembly are fully insulated and protected from exterior elements.

The 16-012-102 assembles two or more insulated wires within the main jacket of the assembly. The wires are then electronically connected via the included electrical contacts. The included contacts are designed to be used with terminals of the appropriate size which can be crimped or soldered to ensure a good connection. The contacts are also resistant to corrosion and moisture, allowing for a safe connection in harsh environments.

The 16-012-102 assembly also features heat-shrinkable ends. These ends are designed to provide the assembly with additional protection and to also reduce the possibility of any exposed wiring. These heat-shrinking covers can also be used to color-code the wires that are in use, allowing for easier identification of the proper wires.

When looking at the overall design of the 16-012-102, it is easy to see why this type of assembly is popular in a variety of settings. Unlike traditional round or flat cables, Rectangular Cable Assemblies can be easily configured to meet the needs of a particular application. This allows for a greater degree of customizability and flexibility when cleaning up a wiring setup. The amount of protection provided by the included heat-shrinkage and the electrical contacts also help to ensure that the assembly can provide power and connections safely and reliably for any type of application.
