Cable Gland FAQs
A cable gland, also known as a cable connector or strain relief, is a device designed to attach and secure the end of an electrical cable to the equipment. It provides sealing, grounding, and strain relief, ensuring the cable remains securely connected.
When choosing a cable gland, consider factors such as the cable diameter, the material of the gland (plastic, metal), the type of sealing needed, and the environment where it will be used (e.g., hazardous areas).
Cable glands are typically made from materials such as brass, stainless steel, aluminum, or plastic. The choice of material depends on the application and the environment in which the cable gland will be used.
Sealing is crucial because it prevents dust, moisture, and other contaminants from entering the enclosure, which can cause electrical failures and damage. Proper sealing also ensures that the cable remains securely in place.
