Connectors, Grounds and Splices



Connectors, Grounds and Splices

Connectors, grounds and splices are numbered using a five character format, for example: CA001, CA002, G03BL, FLS25. Pin numbers are designated using only significant digits, therefore CA001 pin 001 is represented as CA001/1.

Wire Lengths
Wire lengths are stated in millimeters and appear directly below the color code for each wire.

Twisted Wires






The figure-of-eight symbol indicates that wires are twisted together.

Resistor Values
The omega symbol often used to represent resistance is not used in this publication.
- Whole-number resistor values below 1000 ohms are suffixed with R , for example: 820R.
- Whole-number resistor values above 1000 ohms are suffixed with K , for example: 820K.
- Fractional resistors values have R or K inserted at the position of the decimal point, for example: 8R2 represents 8.2 ohms, 1K0 represents 1K ohms.
