WHAT IS WIRING HARNESS?

 A cable harness, also known as a wire

harness, cable assembly, wiring
assembly or wiring loom, is an assembly of
cables or wires which transmit signals or
electrical power. The cables are bound
together by straps, cable ties, cable lacing,
sleeves, electrical tape, conduit, a weave of
extruded string, or a combination thereof.
COMPONENTS OF WIRING HARNESS

 Wires
 Terminals

 Connectors

 Caps & Sleeves

 Fuse Boxes
WIRES

Wire is a single, usually

cylindrical, flexible strand
or rod of metal. Wires are
used to bear mechanical
loads and to carry electricity
and telecommunication signals.


TERMINALS

Push On Terminal Copper Terminal Correct way

to put
terminal on
wires
CONNECTORS

Connectors are used to

make connections
From one device
to another
CAPS & SLEEVES

Caps are used to protect the

terminals from being
damaged.

Sleeves are used to

protect the wires from
shrinking due to high
currents.
FUSE BOX

To protect the wire lines

from short when high
Intensity of current is
passed.
MANUFACTURING PROCESS

STEP 1
 Terminals are fixed on wires

 Then with the help of

applicators wires are

cut on CNC machine

C n c machine
MANUFACTURING PROCESS(CONTD…)

STEP 2
 Quality of the wire is being checked by the
Quality Analyst
 Parameters to be checked;

 PVC of the wire

 Terminals of the wire
 Width of the terminal
MANUFACTURING PROCESS(CONTD…)

STEP 3

Taping is done on the

wires to protect them
from moisture and heat
MANUFACTURING PROCESS(CONTD…)

 After taping, quality is checked

 Then packing is done

 And the final products are dispatched to the

market.
SAFETY MEASURES (DO’S)
 Always keep the area around the machine clear of
obstacles.
 Always put material where you can reach it.
 Always check that tools are sharp and set correctly.
 Always check that the correct tool data is entered into
the CNC program
 Always make sure that all guards are in position while
the machine is in operation.
 Always follow company policy on correct procedures
when handling or lifting parts or tooling.
SAFETY MEASURES

DON'T:
 Do not use the machine table as a
workbench.
 Do not use compressed air to blow chips
from the parts of the machine, machine
surfaces, cabinets, controls or floor around
the machine.
ADVANTAGES

 Advantages over loose wires and cables

 Adverse effects of vibrations, abrasions, and
moisture.
 Usage of space is optimized

 Risk of a short is decreased

 Installation time is decreased and the

process can be easily standardized
