We think it’s pretty safe to assume that most of the electrical connections our readers are making out there involve solder or solder paste. But we’ve all made a crimp connection or two in our ...

We've seen the connectors you're talking about. At a glance, they seem to offer the best of both worlds: the mechanical clamp of a crimp connector and the superior connection of a soldered connection.

We’ve all done it at some time — made an electrical connection by twisting together the bare ends of some wires. It’s quick, and easy, but because of how little force required to part it, not terribly ...

The tools needed to make crimp connections are inexpensive, and the t­echniques used are simple. Still, every connection is a potential source of resistance or corrosion. Use these tips to help ensure ...

You’ve waded through all of the connector catalogs and found the connector that meets all your design criteria and is just right for your application. It has the right current rating, voltage rating, ...

Despite plenty of EC&M resources on grounding and bonding, including theory and specific rules on the topic, the simple question we continually get from electrical professionals in the field is: “So ...
