Work Package 2.1 Cables and Connector Systems

This WP will be led by MIRA.

Available cable systems, connectors and signal interconnect technologies will be surveyed; technologies now in manufacture, technologies that might be modified to meet the requirements defined herein and technologies developed for other industrial sectors will be considered.

Three candidate solutions will be selected for further assessment. In this WP, theoretical analyses, using different methods, will be performed to yield information on performance, usability and ageing aspects. Comparisons will be devised such that advantages over conventional technologies can be enumerated.

This WP has been finished.
