Question: 1 / 400

EHS cable should be attached to hardware using:

Thimble

EHS (Extra High Strength) cable should be attached to hardware using a thimble. A thimble is a metal or plastic device used to prevent a cable from being kinked or bent beyond a certain radius at the attachment point. It helps protect the cable from wear and tear due to friction and movement against the hardware it is attached to. Using a thimble ensures a secure and proper attachment while maintaining the integrity of the cable over time.

In contrast, the other options provided (included bark, excessive branch weight, codominant stems, machine-threaded, reduction) are not suitable or proper methods for attaching EHS cable to hardware. They do not provide the necessary protection, support, or durability required for a safe and effective attachment of the cable in an arboricultural setting.
