Cables and wires

Previous pageReturn to chapter overviewNext page

In cadett ELSA, the connections are divided in two main categories:

 

Wires

Cable cores

 

Cables are often associated with a cable definitions in the catalogue, like EKK3X1.5. In many cases, cables are synonymous with external connections, but that is only part of the truth, since you may have internal cables, as well as external wires.

 

The opposite is a conventional single wire, like a RK1.5. This is often synonymous with internal connections, but that too is only part of the truth, for the same reasons as stated above.

 

Connections which are cores of cables are marked in the circuit diagram with special cable symbols that specify which cable they belong to, and which cable core number they have. Connections which are not marked with such cable symbols are interpreted as common single wires.

 

Wires, in some cases somewhat carelessly called “internal connections”, can be numbered. These numbers are referred to as “wire-numbers”.
