1. What materials are available
First of all, we need to know what materials are available for automobile terminal wire harness, generally aluminum or copper. The difference between the two is that aluminum is light but not durable. Copper is much heavier than aluminum, but copper is more durable. Depending on your application and the appropriate current intensity, some equipment may only use terminal wires made of one material.
2. What type of insulation is available
PVC insulation material or "cross-linked" insulation material can usually be used for automobile terminal wires, because the material is extruded under heat and pressure, which changes the molecular structure and enables it to withstand higher temperatures. Cross linked insulation is usually more durable, while PVC insulation will be more cost-effective. Fully understand the wires used by the equipment. Because cross-linked wires should be used for extreme high temperature applications such as engine room, PVC insulated wires can be used for general applications.
3. Which welding method to choose
Terminal blocks usually have two types of connections, welded and solderless. The solderless connection is to quickly disconnect the required terminals and connectors. That is to say, for all applications, the non welded connection will not be too strong. Although the welded connection takes longer to complete, it can provide a solid connection.
4. Selection of cable wires
The longer the wire required for general application, the more current it needs to flow through, and the lower the wire specification. Before purchase, the required terminal cable parameters and specifications should be clarified. It is recommended to check on the thicker wire side as much as possible to avoid inferior products.
