Application Notes
Shielded cord with a drain wire is widely used in applications where electromagnetic interference (EMI) or radio frequency interference (RFI) could disrupt signal integrity or equipment operation. The drain wire provides a low-resistance path to ground, simplifying the grounding of the shield and enhancing the cable’s protective capabilities
Product FAQs
What makes a cord hospital grade?
Hospital grade cords meet strict UL and CSA standards for grounding reliability, strain relief, and durability. Look for the green dot on the plug, which certifies compliance.
What is the purpose of the shield in this cord?
The shield reduces electromagnetic interference (EMI) caused by nearby electrical equipment or power lines, helping to ensure clean signal or power delivery.
What does the drain wire do?
The drain wire is in direct contact with the foil shield and provides a path to ground, offering additional EMI protection when properly terminated.
Can I purchase exact lengths?
Yes. All cords in this category are cut-to-length to meet your specific project needs.
