Hi,
has anyone ever had problems with the screw terminals and stranded / tinned wires?
The Wikipedia says "Wires must never be tinned with solder prior to installation in a screw terminal, since the soft metal will cold flow, ..." / "Wire strands may not be contained by the screw head in type 1 terminals, so sometimes stranded wires are crimped into a ferrule to prevent bridging"
Or are the screw terminals "elevator design"?
(I'm still waiting for the payment details for the kit ... so I can't look by myself, sorry.)
Regards
Stefan
