Proper installation and maintenance extend cable life and ensure safety. Key tips include:

• Avoid sharp bends; follow minimum bend radius specified by the manufacturer.

• Prevent mechanical damage by using conduit or cable trays.

• Ensure correct cable sizing for current load to avoid overheating.

• Use appropriate connectors and terminations to reduce resistance and risk of faults.

• Label cables clearly for easy identification and troubleshooting.

• Regularly inspect cables for signs of wear, abrasion, or insulation damage.

• Avoid exposure to chemicals, moisture, or excessive UV unless cables are rated for such environments.

• Follow local electrical codes and standards to ensure compliance and safety.
