Cable Considerations

From Dytran Instruments, Inc.
 

 
By nature, cables are usually the weakest part of any measurement system. Because they are somewhat fragile, they must be handled with care. The weakest point on the cable assembly is the intersection of the wire and the cable connector, so excess stress at this point must be minimized.
