JP 2003-203527 A

ここで、従来の端子付きケーブルには、次のような解決すべき課題があった。
例えば、電力設備や通信設備関係で、端子付きケーブルの接続作業において接続ミスが生じると、大規模な事故が発生するおそれがある。特に、複雑に分岐したケーブルや外観構造の類似した端子が使用されていると接続ミスが生じ易い。このため、点検作業や安全確認にも、細心の注意力が必要になる。 Here, the conventional terminal cable has the following problems to be solved.
For example, a large-scale accident may occur if a connection error occurs in connection work of a cable with a terminal in relation to power equipment or communication equipment. In particular, if a complicatedly branched cable or a terminal having a similar external structure is used, a connection error is likely to occur. For this reason, careful attention is also required for inspection work and safety confirmation.

しかしながら、接続作業時には目視できる表示やマークが、接続完了後は他の機器の陰に隠れて見えなくなることがある。従って、点検と確認作業に非常に時間がかかるという問題があった。
なお、ケーブルに、識別情報を記録したＩＣタグを取付けて、その識別情報を発信させることが知られている（特許文献１参照）。しかしながら、従来、このようなＩＣタグをケーブルの接続作業に応用された例はない。 However, a display or mark that can be visually checked during connection work may be hidden behind other devices after connection is complete. Therefore, there is a problem that it takes a very long time for inspection and confirmation work.
It is known that an IC tag having identification information recorded thereon is attached to a cable to transmit the identification information (see Patent Document 1). However, there is no conventional example in which such an IC tag is applied to cable connection work.

本発明は、以上の点に着目してなされたもので、接続工事もしくは完了時の点検が容易な端子付きケーブルを提供することを目的とする。   The present invention has been made paying attention to the above points, and an object of the present invention is to provide a cable with a terminal that can be easily inspected upon connection work or completion.
