That's total BS IMHO. Here's how you do it, followed by soldering & shrink tubing. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Western_Union_splice (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beer3.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beer3.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beer3.gif) I've used that for decades. I was calling it the wrong name. I called it A&P or NASA style. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/av-943.gif) They just appropriated it from someone else! I've tested three splice spans (20,16,14) for both resistance and failure. No difference in resistance on a Fluke 87 and they never failed at the splice when the wire was shock tested to breakage. In 30+ years I've never had to re-do a splice done this way. For the last 8 years I have been using type 2 heat shrink with the glue lining. Once you get "good" your spice will look like you just added heat shrink to a wire. Almost no diameter change. |
