I think I remember aircraft uses 400ac voltage and aircraft wiring usually vibrates alot. Also it's pretty easy to screw up a solder joint and a crimp is a lot faster and maybe harder to screw up. The thing it don't like to deal with on crimps is they get corroded and loose from age. The heating and cooling makes the metal loose.
For the guys that like to read this seems like my kinda place. Check out post 25. http://www.jalopyjournal.com/forum/showthr...lder&page=2 Leadfree problems in the repair of electronics: Post 39 |
