wirenutting twisted and solid wire
Does anyone have a sure fire method for wirenutting/pigtailing stranded and
solid wire together? Seems like when I do it half the time the stranded will pull out when light force is applied to the wire. Does it help to cut the solid wire a bit shorter than the stranded wire so that the stranded wire can wrap around the end of the solid wire and not push out when screwed onto the wire nut? |
