UL Solutions' Wiring Harness Traceability program

In today’s world, manufacturing processes have become more complex and global in nature. Electric and electronic devices typically include components and materials from a large number of manufacturers spanning several regions. Consequently, a large percentage of the appliance wiring material (AWM) used in final products is processed into a harness before it reaches the final assembly process. This can lead to a complicated quality assurance problem. Fortunately, we’ve designed a simple solution.   

Our Wiring Harness Traceability program monitors cables as they move from the manufacturing plant to the harness producer and into the final assembly line. Doing so has allowed us to build a network of more than 2,000 UL-certified wiring harness manufacturers based on end-product investigations. Having access to these suppliers enables you to fulfill your cable sourcing needs with confidence and introduce new harness designs into your supply chain quickly – saving you time, money and a whole lot of stress.   

Wiring harness traceability benefits

Accepting products that are manufactured off-site or by a third party can be worrying, especially because the introduction of non-compliant products into your supply chain can pose a lot of risks. Our Wiring Harness Traceability program helps you mitigate those risks by giving you the information you need to only accept wiring harnesses that have been tested and certified by one of the most trusted sources in the industry.
