| + | Hi How to solder electrical connections ! |
| | | | |
| − | * A Soldering Controlled output Soldering station Is overall best for most harness work. A "Gun" or "Pen". Gun is best used for intermitent and general joints, pen is better for many small, specified soldering tasks. [[Weller]] is a well-known brand for soldering appliances.
| + | I'm reaching out today to tell you about Melio, a simple payments solution that helps small businesses like yours save time and money and increase cash flow. |
| − | * De-solder / soldering tools & braid.
| + | |
| − | * About a pound of 60/40 solder, (I use 24 gauge for harness making, and it works well for circuit board assembly also, a good mid-sized gauge)
| + | |
| − | * Some resin, a pin vise, hemostats, small brass (about the size of a toothbrush), acid brush, a dental pick is also handy,
| + | |
| − | * A GOOD set of automatic strippers with a depth gauge
| + | |
| − | * a GOOD tie wrap gun, various tie wraps
| + | |
| − | * Bulk (5000 at a time) ring terminals in the 3 popular sizes, that are NOT insulated
| + | |
| − | *Shrink tubing of various sizes and colors(cheaper in bulk), makes neat, tidy, and professional transitions from joined wire section to section.
| + | |
| − | *A Heat Gun is Required or a hair dryer (takes more time, but works) for the shrink tubing.
| + | |
| − | *Do not use matches or a lighter for heat shrink..this will MELT the tubing, make it brittle, and it will not shrink to the proper size..It will slide right off the joint in most cases.
| + | |
| | | | |
| − | ==The procedure==
| + | What is Melio? It's a super easy-to-use accounts payable tool with an intuitive dashboard where you can pay all your business invoices and receive payments from other businesses. |
| − | * Strip the wire to fit the terminal sleeve, with about 1/4 inch showing.
| + | |
| − | * Without twisting the stripped end, tin it until a good silver coat appears.
| + | |
| − | * Then, tin the terminal, with just enough solder to flow and leave a silver coat INSIDE the sleeve.
| + | |
| − | * Next, get two pieces of shrink tubing -- black for the first insulator, and a selected color for the top to slide over the black, about a 1/4 inch SHORTER than the bottom; cut and slide them on the wire.
| + | |
| − | * Next, solder the wire to the ring terminal, "wicking " the solder up into the terminal sleeve, until it is filled, smooth, and shiny silver.
| + | |
| − | * Next, crimp the terminal.
| + | |
| − | * Finally, slide the black (longer tubing) flush with the end of the terminal sleeve on the ring end, and shrink it (keeping the wire straight until it cools, unless a pre-bent angle is required).
| + | |
| − | * When cool, slide the colored tubing (for example: red) over the first, and flush with the ring end, and shrink it down. Net result is you have a terminal with a red marker and about a 1/4 trailer behind it. Looks professional, and lasts forever.
| + | |
| − | * To extend a wire, just strip a good length from both wires, make a good mechanical connection by placing the stripped ends parallel to each other, wrap one clockwise and the other counterclockwise. Solder until you have a good flow and coverage and silver (not gray) appearance, then install shrink tubing.
| + | |
| | | | |
| − | Even on crimp terminals, solder AND crimp.
| + | Here's why Melio has been great for me: |
| | | | |
| − | Although some solder is rosin flux-core, adding flux to the joint helps!
| + | Melio is free - there are no monthly fees and you don't have to subscribe. |
| | + | Paying via ACH bank transfer is free. Or you can pay with your credit card (2.9% fee), even when cards aren't accepted*. |
| | + | No more handwritten checks - you choose how you pay, no matter how your vendor wants to be paid. |
| | + | Schedule a payment in advance to ensure you never miss a payment. |
| | + | Connect your QuickBooks Online account for two-way sync between invoice pay and accounting. |
| | | | |
| − | IMPORTANT use rosin flux for electrical work. They even make a rosin core solder for electrical work. other flux will lead to corrosion. Acid types are best for galvanised sheet metal!
