Default Does coating stranded copper wire with solder cause any issues or break any codes?

Correct...you do not solder wire before it goes into a
crimped connector...but you do after it goes into a solder
socket connector and there are crimped connectors made to be
soldered as well of course.


Nope. There are solder cup connectors that DO get
soldered, and
there are crimp type connectors. Find ONE crimp style
connector that
is meant, by design to be soldered. CITE!


Those in the link you snipped.... any crimped connector can
be soldered or not soldered.. they are not specifically
designed to be soldered... but are solderable, and in many
corrosive environments are soldered to keep the wire from
corroding inside the crimp.

If you want the links refer to most my posts you chose to
snip or new threads Ive begun on the subject.
