Discussion: Since the outer diameter of cables varies depending on their manufacturer, type, specifications, and materials used, how do you determine the reference outer diameter dimensions for instrument cables (shielded cables and armored cables) during the initial design phase?
Since the outer diameter of cables varies depending on their manufacturer, type, specifications, and materials used, there is no universal reference table. If you need specific dimensional information, it is recommended that you contact the cable manufacturer or supplier directly; they can provide detailed product specifications or data sheets. However, I can give you a rough reference. Below are some common types of cables and their approximate outer diameter ranges:
- **Shielded cables**: The outer diameter typically ranges from 5mm to 25mm, depending on the number and gauge of the wires inside the cable. - **Armored cables**: Since armored cables require an additional armor layer, their outer diameter is usually larger; it can range from 10 mm to 50 mm. Please note that these are only approximate ranges; the actual size varies depending on the cable type and manufacturer. .
