Across
- 2. a gauge for measuring the diameter of wire.
- 4. a joining process used to join different types of metals together by melting solder
- 7. a plastic tube that shrinks when heated to insulate, protect, and organize wires and other components
- 9. a cable that contains both optical fibers and copper wires in a single jacket to transmit power and data
- 11. a visual representation of the connections and layout of a system
- 13. conductors that are designed for batteries
