Why we need to know the storage method of flexible cable?

Flexible cable has many of storage methods, and the requirements for storage locations are higher than those for ordinary cables. Therefore, attention must be paid to safety related issues. The flexible cable storage method involves properly organizing and storing cables to ensure they remain in good condition and maintain their flexibility; Good flexible cable storage methods can help prolong the lifespan of the cables, preserve their flexibility, and ensure they are in good working condition when needed.

What are the storage method of flexible cable?

Here are some guidelines for flexible cable storage:

Coiling: Coil the cable in a loose, large-diameter loop to avoid stressing or kinking the cable. Avoid tight coiling or wrapping the cable too tightly, as it can lead to permanent damage.
Cable Reels or Spools: For longer cables, consider using cable reels or spools specifically designed for storage. These help keep the cable organized and prevent tangling or twisting.
Cable Ties or Straps: Use cable ties or straps to secure the coiled cable in place. This prevents the cable from unraveling or getting tangled.
Proper Labeling: Label each coil or reel with relevant information, such as cable type, length, and usage. This makes it easier to identify and retrieve the required cable when needed.
Storage Environment: Store cables in a clean, dry, and well-ventilated area away from direct sunlight, extreme temperatures, and moisture. Exposure to these conditions can degrade the cable’s insulation and reduce its flexibility.
Avoid Sharp Edges: Avoid storing cables near sharp edges or abrasive materials that could cause physical damage to the cable jacket or insulation.
Regular Inspection: Periodically inspect stored cables for any signs of damage, such as cuts, abrasions, or degradation. Remove and replace any damaged cables to maintain safety and performance.
