Which IPC standard focuses specifically on wire and cable assemblies?

The IPC/WHMA-A-620 standard specifically targets wire and cable assemblies. It provides comprehensive guidelines on the materials, processes, and quality verification for these assemblies, ensuring they meet the necessary performance requirements. This standard is crucial for organizations involved in the assembly of wire and cable in various electronic systems, helping maintain high-quality standards and reducing the risk of failures in electronic products.

Other standards listed focus on different areas of electronics assembly. For example, IPC-A-610 addresses the acceptability of electronic assemblies in general, while IPC J-STD-001 outlines the requirements for soldered electrical and electronic assemblies. IPC-2221 provides general design considerations for printed boards but does not specifically cater to wire and cable assemblies. Thus, IPC/WHMA-A-620 stands out as the specific standard for wire and cable assembly practices and requirements.
