Re: paper: Working with Wires ( striping, crimping, and soldering)
The reason why you're not supposed to tin the wires going into a WAGO power distribution board is because the connector literally pinches the wire and the strands are spread evenly against the contact area in the terminal. If you solder the end of the wire, the individual strands won't be able to spread out against the terminal and will cause a poor and brittle connection.
