【CVILUX】Product Info What's the difference between wire harness and cable assembly?
Although Cable Assembly and Wire Harness both involve the combination of wires and cables, they differ in structure, application, and manufacturing methods. Wire Harness refers to bundling one or more wires together into a single connection assembly, typically used for internal wiring within machines or enclosures. Common applications include automotive internal circuits, home appliances, and mechanical equipment. Cable Assembly, on the other hand, consists of connectors and single-core or multi-core wires, with an outer layer of insulation to form a cable. It is mainly used for external or peripheral interfaces, offering higher levels of water resistance, dust protection, and interference shielding, making it suitable for harsh environments.
