The term "cable" broadly refers to a variety of products, including insulated electrical wires, fiber optic strands, and structural wire ropes made of steel.
In today's world, where various machines and devices have become electronic, cables such as electric wires and optical fibers have become very important elements. For example, in automobiles, computers are used to control automatic transmissions and engines, and cables are also essential to operate power steering, power windows, and other electronic devices in the car. Automobiles usually use wiring harnesses, which are components made up of several bundled cables.
Common cable tests include withstand voltage tests, where high DC and AC voltages are applied, insulation resistance tests, and mechanical tests to determine properties like bending strength. These tests are essential for verifying the insulation integrity and electrical reliability of the cables, ensuring that in-vehicle equipment operates safely and correctly. They also confirm the mechanical durability of the cables, ensuring they can withstand the stresses of vehicle movement and vibration.
Matsusada Precision offers a range of high-voltage power supplies ideal for conducting these tests, along with X-ray non-destructive testing systems capable of detecting internal defects like wire breaks.
