Advantage of tinned copper conductor: the conductor is made of tinned copper, which not only has good electrical conductivity, can effectively reduce the resistance, reduce the energy loss in the process of power transmission, ensure the efficient transmission of electricity, but also has strong oxidation and corrosion resistance. Tin-plated layer can form a protective film on the surface of the copper conductor, preventing oxidation of copper wires in the humidity, high temperature or chemical corrosive substances in the environment, thus ensuring the long-term stability and reliability of the conductor, maintaining the normal electrical performance of the cable, and providing a solid foundation for the stable operation of the electrical system.
Dual-colour design for easy differentiation: the cable is available in two colours, white and brown, which is convenient for users to differentiate and identify wires with different functions in electrical wiring, for example, white can be used for positive power lines and brown for negative or grounding lines, which makes the wiring clearer, more standardized and easier to identify and manage. This can quickly and accurately locate the required wiring in complex electrical system installation, commissioning, and subsequent maintenance and troubleshooting processes, saving time and effort, improving efficiency and accuracy, and reducing operational errors and potential safety hazards caused by wiring confusion.

4. Product use instructions
Preparation before installation:
Carefully check the appearance of the cable for any defects such as breakage, scratches, flaking insulation, loose strands, oxidation of copper wires, etc. If there are any problems, contact the supplier for replacement in time to ensure that the quality of the cable used is intact. Determine the required cable AWG specifications and colours according to the actual use scenarios and equipment connection requirements, and prepare the necessary installation tools such as wire strippers, crimping pliers, electrician's knife, insulating tape, heat-shrinkable tubing, etc., to ensure that the precision and applicability of the tools, so as to avoid damage to the cable in the installation process.
Wiring and connection:
In the wiring process, the cable should be reasonably planned according to the actual installation path and environmental conditions to avoid excessive bending, twisting or stretching the cable. For the parts that need to be bent, the bending radius should be kept not less than 3 times the outer diameter of the cable (specific multiples can refer to the product specification) to prevent damage to the internal structure of the cable, affecting the electrical performance. At the same time, care should be taken to avoid the cable coming into contact with sharp objects, high temperature parts, humid environment or chemical substances, if it cannot be avoided, corresponding protective measures should be taken, such as using wire troughs, casings or insulating materials for isolation and protection.
When connecting cables and equipment, first use wire strippers to carefully strip the insulation layer at the cable ends, exposing the appropriate length of tinned copper wire (generally according to the requirements of the connection terminals, the length of the exposed length of 3-5 mm or so), and then insert the copper wire into the connection terminals, and use the crimping pliers to firmly press, to ensure that the connection is reliable and has good contact. If a soldered connection is required, suitable solder and soldering techniques should be used to ensure that the solder joints are firm, smooth and free from false soldering. After the connection is completed, the connection is carefully insulated and can be wrapped with insulating tape or heat-shrinkable tubing to prevent leakage and short-circuit accidents.
Precautions for use:
The rated voltage and current of this cable should be used in strict accordance with the parameters on the product specification, and should not exceed the maximum value specified therein, so as not to cause electrical safety accidents, damage to equipment or personal injury. When connecting multiple devices, pay attention to calculating the total power and current to ensure that the cable can withstand the load.
Avoid exposing the cables to harsh environmental conditions such as high temperature, open fire, humidity, corrosive chemicals, etc. If it is unavoidable, corresponding protective measures should be taken, such as the use of fireproof, waterproof, corrosion-resistant wire troughs or casings to protect the cables, in order to prolong the service life of the cables and to ensure the stability of their performance.
Regularly check the connection parts and overall appearance of the cable to see if there is any looseness, oxidation, breakage, etc. If problems are found, they should be repaired or replaced in time to ensure the normal operation and electrical safety of the cable. At the same time, when carrying out equipment maintenance or overhaul, attention should be paid to the protection of cables to avoid damage caused by human factors.
