Supporting Information
Glossary
Color Code
A means of identifying
cable components using
solid colors or stripes. Also,
the scheme that assigns a
number from 0 to 9 for each
of 10 colors.
Color Stability
The time and temperature
ranges within which the
color of a material will
remain within the specified
color limit.
Component
A wire or cable that is com-
bined with other wires or
cables to make a multicom-
ponent cable.
Compound
An insulating or jacketing
material made by formulat-
ing polymeric materials and
additives.
Compound Under Strands
(CUS)
A problem that occurs
when loose stranding, or
overheating during extru-
sion, allows compounds to
get under individual strands
of conductor.
Concentric Stranding
A method of stranding
conductor. Specifically, the
final conductor is built up in
layers so that the inner
diameter of a succeeding
layer is always equal to
the outer diameter of the
underlying layer.
Concentricity
Ratio (expressed as a per-
centage) of the thinnest to
the heaviest wall thickness.
Measured on expanded or
recovered tubing, or wire
insulation, or jacketing.
Conductivity
The capability of a material
to carry electrical current,
usually expressed as a per-
centage of copper conduc-
tivity (copper being 100%).
Specifically, the ratio of the
current flow to the potential

difference causing the flow.
The reciprocal of resis-
tance.
Conductor
The metallic strand or
strands used to carry an
electric current.
Conductor Resistance
The resistance to flow of the
electrical current along a
conductor. Expressed in
ohms/1000 feet. (Usually
referenced to 20°C [68°F]).
Conduit
A tubular raceway for hold-
ing wires or cables.
Configuration
Arrangement of contacts
in a multiple-contact
connector.
Connector
A device used to physically
and electrically connect two
or more conductors.
Connector Classes
Categories based on
shape, function, and small-
est-size contact in a series.
Connector Insert
In connectors with metal
shells, the part that holds
contacts in proper arrange-
ment while electrically insu-
lating them from each other
and from the shell.
Contact
The element in a connector
that makes the actual elec-
trical connection. Also the
parts of a connector that
actually carry the electrical
current, and are touched
together or separated to
control the flow.
Contact Crimp
A contact whose rear por-
tion is a hollow cylinder that
accepts the conductor. A
crimping tool is applied to
swage or form the contact
metal firmly against the con-
ductor. Sometimes referred
to as a solderless contact.

C. America: 52-55-5-729-0425
Contact Resistance
The direct-current resis-
tance of a pair of mated
contacts.
Contact Size
The diameter of the
engagement end of a pin
contact; also related to the
current-carrying capacity
of a contact.
Continuity
A continuous path for
the flow of current in an
electrical circuit.
Continuous Operating
Temperature
Maximum temperature at
which a component will
maintain an acceptable life-
time performance, based
on accelerated aging pre-
diction.
Continuous Service
Conditions (time, tempera-
ture, environment) that
describe the lifetime
requirements of a compo-
nent.
Core
1.) In cables, a component
2.) Inner wall of dual-wall
Coupling Ring
The portion of a plug that
aids in the mating and
demating of a plug and
receptacle and holds the
plug to the receptacle.
Cover, Electrical Connector
An item specifically
designed to cover the
mating end of a connector
for mechanical and/or
environmental protection.
Also known as a dust cover.
