🔧
prob_01
Cable is excessively stiff, making installation difficult.
Common root cause: Prolonged exposure to low temperatures or improper storage.
Step-by-step solution: Gently warm the cable with a hairdryer on a low setting or leave it in a warmer environment for a few hours. Avoid direct, excessive heat.
2. Try handling and bending the cable again; it should be more flexible.
💡
Pro tip: Store the cable in a temperature-controlled area, away from extreme fluctuations.

🚫 What NEVER to Do (Common Misuse Warnings)
⚠️ Bending the cable with a very small bend radius or tying knots.
err_01
Consequence: Internal breakage of the tinned copper conductor, loss of conductivity, and potential insulation failure.
✓ How to avoid: Always respect the minimum bend radius specified by the manufacturer (typically 5-10 times the cable's outer diameter) and avoid twisting or knotting.
