WIRING HARNESSES AND HARNESS COMPONENTS

A cable harness, also known as a wire harness, cable assembly, wiring assembly or wiring loom, is a string of cables and/or wires which transmit informational signals or operating currents (energy). The cables are bound together by clamps, cable ties, cable lacing, sleeves, electrical tape, conduit, a weave of extruded string, or a combination thereof.

Each electric wire in a wiring harness plays a different role, such as taking electric power from power supplies, sending sensor signals, and communicating operational information.

Wiring harnesses are important parts, comparable to nerves or blood vessels in the human body, in supporting the operational foundation of cars or equipment.
