What is Multi Core Copper Wire?

 

 

Multi core copper wire is an electrical conductor composed of multiple individual strands of copper wires bundled together. Each strand is individually insulated, and then the entire bundle is often wrapped in an overall protective sheath or jacket. This construction provides greater flexibility compared to single core copper wire, making it easier to install in applications where the wire needs to be bent or routed through tight spaces.

How to wrap multi-core copper wire connectors

 

 

Single volume method. First, take two adjacent wire cores on either side and cross them in the center of the joint. Then use one of the wire cores as a binding wire, wrap it around the wire 5 to 7 times, and then use the other wire core to tie it with the binding wire. The wires are twisted together, press the original binding wire, and continue to wrap it according to the above method. Its length is 10 times the diameter of the wire. Finally, the twisted wire end is twisted with the wire for 2 turns and then cut off. The wires on the other side are followed in sequence. , pay attention to arrange the twisted parts of the wire cores in a straight line.

 

Winding method. Bend the branch line at 90° and close to the main line. Bend the end of the binding wire into a semicircle at the appropriate place. Bend the short end of the binding wire to form a 90° angle with the semicircle, close it to the connecting wire, and wrap it with the longer end. , its length should be 5 times the diameter of the wire junction, then twist both ends of the binding wire 2 turns, and cut off the remaining wire.


Rewinding method. Break the end of the branch line into two halves and intersect it with the center of the main line connection. After winding the branch line tightly to both sides of the main line, cut the remaining wire in a ladder shape to a length of 10 times the diameter of the conductor.

 

Umbrella method. First, insert the two umbrella-shaped core wires opposite each other and flatten the core wires. Then divide the wire ends of the core wires on each side into 3 groups. First, lift the first group of wire ends on one side and wrap them tightly around the core wires. Lift the ends of the second set of threads and wrap them tightly around the core wire. Finally, lift up the ends of the third set of threads and wrap them tightly around the core wire.

 

T-shaped connection method. Intersect the ends of the branch core wires with the trunk core wires, leave 5mm at the root of the branch core wires, and then wind them clockwise for 6 to 8 turns. Use wire cutters to cut off the remaining core wires and clamp the core wires flat. end.

How should multi-core copper wires be connected directly?

There are three methods for connecting multi-core copper wires, namely single coil method, winding method and rewinding method. First, use fine emery cloth to clean off the oxide film on the surface of the wire core, cut off 2/3 of the middle wire at the junction of the two core wires, open the outer wire cores in an umbrella shape, interlace each other into one, and The opened wire ends are combined into one body, and the cross connection method is used.

 

Single winding method: Take two adjacent wire cores on either side, cross them in the center of the joint, use one of the wire cores as a binding wire, wrap it around the wire 5 to 7 times, and then use After another wire core is twisted with the binding wire, press the original binding wire on top and continue to wind it according to the above method. Its length is 10 times the diameter of the wire. Finally, the twisted wire end is twisted with a wire for 2 turns and then cut off. The wires on the other side proceed in sequence. Note that the twisted cores should be arranged in a straight line.

 

Winding method: The same as the straight-line winding connection method of single-core copper wire.

 

Rewinding method: Suitable for the connection of multi-core flexible conductors. Temporarily bind one end of the closed wires with a short binding wire to prevent loosening. Wrap all the wire cores at the other end tightly for 3 turns, and cut off the excess wire ends in a ladder shape. Do the same on the other side.
