Hi Group



Can anyone explain:

**This connector to me?

**Exactly what type of wire the one is with the red translucent covering?

**Are these connectors and wire still commonly used today?

Perhaps the jet was built in modular sections and uses these connectors to connect one section to the next?



Select Full size 2592 x 1944 for better resolution.



Thx.

  These are one of many examples of devices crafted for

  the IWTS (integrated wire termination systems) used

  in many military, aerospace and high-end industrial

  applications.  Here's a toggle switch fitted with

  IWTS

   The idea behind it is to make as many of the system's

   wire terminations with standard crimp tools as possible.

   The terminal blocks you've found are just commoning points

   for multiple branches of a circuit. Rather than crimp

   on terminals and then attache with screws (ugh!) one

   simple crimps on a pin (usually female) and stuffs

   the pin into an environmentally sealed cavity to mate

   with a captive pin therein.



   Some of the earliest patents on this idea go back to

   the 70's.  Other products using this technology . . .

Hi Bob



Thx. for the explanation on the connector.



Can you shed some light on the wire that has red translucent insulation?
