Consolidated Electronic Wire & Cable manufactured a thermoplastic integral parallel cord for use with sound equipment.
The integral parallel cord, which is made of 18 AWG bare copper wires with an extruded PVC thermoplastic jacket, withstands temperatures from -40oC to 105oC and has a 300-volt rating.
A green (SR-PVC) ground wire was extruded between the black conductors to provide a flexible zip cord. One of the black conductors had a white stripe for polarity.
We built the cord to meet a tolerance of ±.005″ and tested the cord for conductor continuity and AC/DC HV requirements.
In addition, we ensured the cord complied with UL Standard 62 Type SPT-2, CSA FT-2, RoHS and VW-1 standards. We produced 20,000 feet of the integral parallel cord and delivered it to customer within a four-week time period.
