Abstract

A cable installation support system capable of saving the labor of, and speeding up, work and check work while eliminating human error has terminals with a fixed pitch, and a terminal block cover having RFIDs with the same pitch as the pitch of the terminals of the terminal block. A terminal is provided with an R FID reader that reads identification information stored in the RFIDs. Also, in the terminal, identification information in RFID tags attached to core wires of a cable and terminals to which the core wires are attached are associated with each other, and predetermined RFIDs attached to the terminal block cover and the respective terminals of the terminal block are associated with each other. When an RFID tag and an RFID in the terminal block cover are read by the RFID reader, the terminal determines whether or not the core wire is connected to a correct terminal.
