[QUOTE="Zeespark, post: 244283, member: 400"] Its not only that SL, if you twist conductors and terminate them into a tunnel, whats to say that the twisted cable wont work loose in time? You go to put your continuity tester on it, low reading, thinking that your circuit is fine when it actually isnt. If you terminate straight conductors, and test for a possible fault, you would find a continuity issue at that stage. AndyGuinness [/QUOTE]
