Jumper Wire
 


 

1. CONDUCTOR  :

Each conductor shall consist of a solid round wire of annealed high conductivity copper, smoothly drawn, nominally circular in section , uniform in quality and resistance and free  from defects. The quality of copper shall confirm to IEC-28 or IS-12444.
 

2. INSULATION  :

Each conductor shall be insulated with  solid polythene and 100% virgin material as per ASTM D  883. The polythene shall confirm to ASTM-1248 Type II or III, Class A, Category 4 or 5 and meet the parameters.
 

3. PAIRING :

Two Insulated conductors shall be twisted together with  uniform lay to form a pair. The length of the lay of any pair is kept different from that of adjacent pairs. The lay of various pairs are chosen as to satisfy the Electrical parameter requirement.
