Re: Current Sensor <cabling/picts>

Hay4man & all
Here are pictures of PWM male end
pressed fully into the outer 3 holes of the current sensor PCB
bent flat onto the PCB for firm cementing
then soldered.

The stranded wire crimped PWM connections provide a good strain relief.

If the stranded wires are soldered directly to the PCB
it is important to anchor them
else movement will cause breakage at the stiff solder joint.

A stranded wire joint is vibration resistant if crimped (multi wire suspension)
but when soldered turns into a solid wire joint not preferred for
vibration/movement prone areas, like cars,
cause solid joints are prone to crack and break easily.

picts may not have inserted (my 1st try I did copy/paste below & attach files)
(& they didn't show up in preview) so
email me & I'll send send them direct.

& plse instruct how to insert .jpgs from local HD into posts....
