Provided are an insulated wire material including: a conductor including a single core conductor or a plurality of divided conductors placed in parallel to each other or helically placed; a peripheral insulating layer with which a periphery of the conductor is coated; and a welding member provided at least one end portion of the conductor and joined, via a welded portion welded to the single core conductor or divided conductors, to at least a peripheral surface of the welded portion, a manufacturing method thereof, a coil including the insulated wire material, and electrical/electronic equipment including the coil.

Insulated wire material and method of manufacturing the same, and coil and electrical/electronic equipment

A fusion condition providing system for an optical fiber fusion splicer includes: a storage device storing a database of fusion conditions; a user-side communication unit transmitting a command for requesting a fusion condition for a pair of optical fibers to be fusion spliced by a user's fusion splicer; and a data management unit. The data management unit, in accordance with the command received from the user-side communication unit via a network, transmits the requested fusion condition among the plurality of fusion conditions inside the storage device to the user-side communication unit via the network so that the requested fusion condition is available for use in the fusion splicer. If the requested fusion condition was not in the database, the data management unit updates the database by causing the requested fusion condition to be newly created and storing the newly created fusion condition in the database.
