Wiring harness routing & packaging Rules Week 3 Challenge
Aim: To download the following cad data & define it as Electrical support using an Electrical Part Design Workbench. Define all the necessary properties.
Solution:
1) P Clamp -
Cable clamps are add-ons for twine and cable. They are used to package deal, clip, clamp, label, guide, and shield wires and cables. Clamps play a critical position in the setup and preservation of cable systems. Cable clamps are used in home production, car, rigging, and lots more commercial and production packages. The clamps are available in extensive types sorts and sizes.
The form and size of the object or machine are secured. The most diameter refers back to the maximum diameter of the package deal of wires and cables. If the clamp is greater than the conduit overseas count can input the gap between the 2 portions can reason harm due to abrasion. If the conduit is larger than the clamp deformation and strain can occur on the mounting foot of the clamp and potentially ruin the clamp.

2) Tyco 1738312 -
A backshell is a mechanical device threaded into the rear of an electrical connector. The more popular back shells are strain relief, cable clamps, and adaptors. The SUNBANK brand offers a wide range of standard and customized back shells for the aviation and defense markets. Backshells protect the electrical connector and the cable link from physical stress (strain, shock, vibration) as well as electromagnetic interference that can occur when lightning strikes an aircraft.

3) COT Tubes -
The corrugated Tube is bellows shape and flexible, used for protecting the wire harness. It is used for cars, construction machines, farm machines, consumer electronics, houses, etc. We also develop functional products, improve the global supply, and increase the size and color of products. We have worked hard to be the No.1 maker for customers.

Catalogue Family:
All, 5mm, 10mm, 15mm, 20mm, 35mm.
Under one family, one catalogue.
Conclusion:
The required dimensions for COT tubes have been created, and CAD parts have been successfully given electrical properties. Each part has also been added to the appropriate catalog documents for future accessibility.
