Customer Questions & Answers
What advantages does the TL136 14AWG silicone cable offer compared with PVC or other materials?
The silicone insulation on the TL136 cable provides greater flexibility, superior heat resistance and better durability against bending fatigue compared with PVC cables. This results in a lower risk of cracking and more stable performance in laboratory or engineering applications where the cable is moved frequently.
What are the exact dimensions and weight of the TL136 cable, and what is included in the box?
The cable is 1 m long, with 4 mm male banana connectors. The external diameter of the 14AWG conductor is approximately 2.08 mm, with a silicone coating. Estimated weight per unit is 45-55 g. The box includes only the red test lead, with no additional accessories.
Is this 4 mm banana cable compatible with all standard test equipment, and what voltage/current limits does it have?
The 4 mm male banana connector is compatible with most measuring instruments and laboratory power supplies that use this standard. It supports up to 32 A and 30 VAC or 60 VDC. It should not be used outside these values due to electrical risks or material damage.
What maintenance does it require and how can ambient temperature affect its durability?
The cable requires occasional cleaning with a dry cloth to remove residue. Silicone withstands typical working temperatures of up to 180 °C, but the connector and PVC insulation may limit continuous use to laboratory conditions (20-60 °C). Avoid prolonged exposure to sunlight or strong chemical compounds to preserve flexibility.
What are the most common problems with this type of cable and how can they be resolved?
The most common faults include bending fatigue near the connector and loss of conductivity due to dirt or slight oxidation on the nickel-plated brass pins. It is recommended to periodically check the integrity of the insulation and clean the connectors with isopropyl alcohol if contact is lost. Soldering or repairing the pins is not recommended; if there is visible damage, it is better to replace the cable.
What is the length of the TL136 test lead?
The cable is 1 metre long.
What type of connectors does this cable have?
This cable has 4mm male to male banana connectors in nickel-plated brass with PVC insulation.
What applications is this cable suitable for?
It is suitable for electrical testing, connections in multimeters, oscilloscopes and electronics projects that require flexible and durable test leads.
What is the electrical rating of the cable?
It supports up to 30VAC and 60VDC with a maximum current of 32 amperes.
Is this cable compatible with other devices?
Yes, it is compatible with any equipment that uses 4mm banana connectors.
