Steel wire armoured cable glands are essential components in a wide variety of applications to protect electrical power and instrument cables. They are designed to protect cables from damage, dirt and water. These cable gland connector also aid in preventing cables from pulling out or twisting, which can lead to accidents or a loss of connection.
SWA glands are key elements for safeguarding cables in various locations (e. g. industrial or power plants). These strain relief cable gland protect the cables from being damaged, water, and dust. But when people put them in, they don’t always do it right and that can lead to problems down the road.

When Running the cable maybe installers forget to prepare it properly. For instance the steel wire armouring on the cable will need to be cut and dressed neatly before fitting the gland. If this is not provided for, the gland will be unable to take a firm grip of the armour and secure the cable.

For instance, the cost of steel and other raw materials needed to fabricate the glands can increase or decrease. As steel prices rise, the cost of producing the cable glands typically rises as well. What this means is that buyers might need to shell out more. Alternatively, however, if the cost of raw materials decreases, glands may become less expensive.

One problem is that water leaks into the gland. This is an occurrence often when the gland has not been packed correctly or even the sealing parts are damaged.
