Project 1

WIRING HARNESS PROJECT- V ENGINE

Introduction:-

This project is a practical application of wiring harness. Engine is the most complex mechanical product of an automotive that involves various electrical components. Ignition systems and sensors require highly complex wiring geometries to route the whole bundle. As per the application, mounting features need to be installed on an engine for the rigid fixing and guiding of wirings.

Wiring harness involves many stages of routing and modifications as per the design procedure. Concept routing done by mechanical engineers will be submitted for electrical feasibility checks. And proper feedbacks on modifications and currections will updated.

Another important factor needs to consider is the usage of proper wiring and protective materials. Various parts of engine become high temperature. So the wiring needs to made using heat resistant materials and proper protection.
