- There is conductivity, the amount of current the wire can carry
- There is MECHANICAL STRENGTH, which decides when and if the wire will fail structurally
- I use TTMA (Truck Trailer Manufacturer's Association) 7-way trailer cord sheathed in it's own neoprene jacket to run to the rear of my vehicles
- Ahead of the trailer connector socket I drop a 1/4" by 1" hanger
- A 4" cap of triple wall heat-shrink tubing collars the neoprene sheath
- Then a stainless-steel cable tie wrap clamps the cable to the hanger
- This is via the school of hard-knocks the only way I have stopped ice accumulations from yanking the trailer cord wire ends from the socket
