Good for 1,000 volts in electric cars

摘要

Before the backdrop of ever-stricter emission limits, all car manufacturers and suppliers are working feverishly on new technologies like the electric drive. However, it is precisely these innovative electric and hybrid vehicles that place high demands on cable harnesses and lines, all of which are hardly comparable to the on-board power supply systems of today. In fact, due to the high voltages of as much as 1,000 volts and correspondingly high currents, these cables have to be able to withstand temperatures that are much higher than those encountered by their predecessors.
