Are solid wires suitable for Logger Connection?


awiedem Feb 25, 2013 03:01 PM

Hello,
I currently planning a measurement for which I need a large amount of cables. I found a more or less cheap vendor for these but unfortunatley he can only offer solid cables.
So my question is, has anybody experience with the use of solid cables for Logger Connection, to my knowledge commonly I have to use flexible cable due to the bending radius and the connection accuracy.
My cables have the minimum bending radius 11cm and a cable core of 0,6mm.
I have a rel. small loggerbox in which I want to store the logger during the measurments, I am afraid that the solid cables are not flexible enough for the connection in this small box. So is this fear justified?

Thanks in advance to everybody who has an oppinion regarding this problem.

Solid wires should be perfectly acceptable AS long as you do not intend to move anything after installation. Afterall most telephone and ethernet wiring is done with sold conductor wiring.

If the logger installation is fixed, be careful some wires will not be moved, during service and data extraction.
