RE: DC power umbilical

Posted by Dave Garretson on February 25, 2017 at 07:13:58:

I made it myself from bundles of Rio Grande dead soft .999 fine silver round wire p/n 105320. Sorry, when I posted above I confused the aggregate gauge with an AC PC that I made from the same strands. For the uR umbilical I twisted eight 20awg strands per conductor(totaling 10-11awg) into 3' lengths. The wire bundle is tapered down to three strands per conductor at the end in order to fit inside the male connector. The bundles are insulated by McMaster Carr 1/2" polyolefin heat shrink tubing. Total cost is around $100.
