a short length of braided wire connecting a stationary part to a moving part in an electrical device
A pigtail is the end of an audio cable which simply has bare wires rather than any type of connector Pigtails are used to connect wires to binding posts and screw terminals
A flexible tube of varying lengths that is typically constructed of anneallable metals (steel, brass, copper) Typically used to convey gases and liquids from one point to another at pressures greater than 200 psia
A fibre optic cable assembly consisting of a connector and an unterminated fibre at the other end Normally in applications wherein a splice is convenient for terminating a device with a connector Also used when the loss characteristics of the connector must be known precisely In this case for instance, a splice of 03 dB might be reliably predicted and controlled, but the variability of most commercially available terminations is unacceptable So a pre-characterized cable assembly is cut into a pigtail and attached to the device through spicing
A short, added piece of wire connected by a wire nut Commonly used to extend or connect wires in a box
Cable used to transmit electrical power from the tractor to the trailer So named because it is coiled like a pig's tail
