Repairing Power Distribution Metric "Studs"
I have tried to contact the manufacturer Diversified Systems twice with no reply.

Some students installed imperial nuts on the metric studs on our test power distribution board trashing the studs. Anyone know where to obtain replacement studs from ? Anyone know why they were metric ?

If the studs are not available, alternatives appear to solder a lug on to the stud or cut the thread section of the stud off and drill and tap the body of the stud.
