Re: Tips for new 'Head of Electronics'

1) Have the person making the connections do a pull test after each and every connection is made. No exceptions.

2) Have each person check their own work after they do it. Make it known that they should not be passing on their work until they have ensured that it is totally error free.

3) Ensure the layout of the components allows #1 and #2 above (see Austin and Thadeus' posts).

4) Have someone on the team who is meticulous and thorough check that all the connections are correct and do a pull test on each and every connection afterward. Make it known that everyone's work will be checked by someone else and it is expected that no errors should be found.

5) If you have non-ratcheting crimpers, throw them in the trash NOW.
