Things you need to prepare before you customize Wiring Harness

2022-09-15
Before making your custom wiring harness, the first and most important thing is a design or wiring diagram.
This diagram will lead you to measure wires, cutting and stripping wires, bounding the cables, etc.

Asides from the diagram, the following tools are needed in making a wiring harness.

  • Wire Cutter: used to cut the wires
  • Wire Stripper: used to strip off some part of the insulation of a cable
  • Crimping Plier/Ratcheting Crimpers: used to tighten the terminals to the stripped wires
  • Heat Gun: uses high temperature to shrink the covering plastic tubes to the body of the cable
  • Multimeter: used to test for continuity and other parameters within the wiring connection
  • Heat shrink: a soft plastic used as a covering for connection joints
  • Wires: connecting wires for the flow of signal/power from the source to the needed terminal
  • Terminals: a plastic body with a conducting head that makes contact with the bare/stripped wire
  • Zip Ties: used to bundle the wire harnesses neatly

This equipment varies on the large-scale production of wiring harnesses.

There are now fully automated machines that take care of the whole process from the wire cutting, stripping, crimping, and joining terminals, etc.

These machines have correct and efficient outputs, ensuring there are no loose ends or short circuits.
