What is a wiring harness?

A cable harness is often used in the lighting industry. At TRALERT® we also work with wiring harnesses on a daily basis, but what is it exactly? When a lamp has several functions (e.g. a rear light), it also needs different types of cables to operate all the functions in the lamp. To make it easier to connect such a lamp, wiring harnesses have been developed. In a cable harness, all the different cables are gathered together and attached to one connector. This way, you only have to connect one connector and not all the different cables of the lamp. Often, the collection of cables is surrounded by a housing that makes the cables water resistant (IP69K) are.

Different types of wiring harnesses

Om het aansluiten van allerlei verschillende lampen nog makkelijker en efficiënter te maken zijn er verschillende soorten kabelbomen ontwikkeld. Het verschil zit hem in de aansluiting/connector van de lamp. Doordat voertuigen een andere aansluiting kunnen hebben, zijn er verschillende kabelbomen ontwikkeld waardoor er voor elk probleem een oplossing is. Tegenwoordig zijn er enorm veel verschillende kabelbomen met allerlei verschillende connectoren verkrijgbaar.
