Designing a wire harness for the automotive industry is a complex task. The automotive environment poses various challenges, such as heat, vibration, and chemical exposure, which can potentially damage wire and cable assemblies that aren’t specifically fabricated for automotive applications. Inadequate wire protection in vehicles can result in malfunctions and, in severe cases, fires. Thus, it is crucial to avoid using household wires and instead use cables that meet automotive specifications.
In hybrid and electric vehicles, the importance of high-quality cable assemblies becomes even more critical. These vehicles require intricate high-voltage cable assembly designs to ensure optimal performance and safety.
