To Terminate or Not?
To Terminate or Not?
(OP)
I'm building a machine that has a 25-pin shielded conductor cable between the control box and the equipment itself. At the moment, I am using 17 of the conductors leaving others open for possible future expansion (though we have no immediate plans for them). My question is whether or not I should terminate the "extra" 8 wires at each end with a dead-end into a blank terminal block (using DINEctor blocks) or just tie/tuck those wires away.

Half full - Half empty? I don't mind. It's what in it that counts.
