A wire harness, also commonly referred to as a wiring harness, is an exterior sheath used to cover some types of electronic wires. Generally, wiring harnesses are made of thermoplastic or thermoset materials that can help protect the cables from the environment. It is a low-cost, simple method for technicians to keep wires organized, protected, and easy to navigate. Although most wires come with their own exterior sleeves, those sleeves seldom are thick enough to protect the wires from dust, debris, and moisture. The thicker the wire is, the more risk there is of it sustaining damage due to a burned fuse.

The term “wire harness” is often used interchangeably with the term “cable assembly.” However, these are actually two different products. While both are exterior sheaths used to protect wires or cables, the cable assembly is made of a more durable material and is created to offer a higher level of protection in the most extreme conditions. Wiring harnesses and cable assemblies each have a distinct purpose in the electrical field. Selecting the right one is based on the application needed and is an important part of the success of your product. Ensuring that you have experienced, and informed members of your team helps ensure that you are using the correct components for your project.
