Anthony. There is a slight bent in them already by twist I mean bend them a little bit with heat and get them soldered together. So far it is working just fine and no complaints about it. Have a blessed day

Waleed,
The socket base connections and the heavy gauge enamelled copper wires don't lend themself to be entwined. I like the idea but foresee real difficulties in practice.

Thanks for your feedback, Waleed. It is good to know that you tin solder the connections and, according to your assertion, it is effective too.

Thanks for the article. However I always solder the connections after I twist the wires together and I never had a problem with going bad again. I have a hight rate success in fixing these connectors..of course the two wires connected together have to be stripped of their coating otherwise the soldering will not be effective. Have a blessed day

Perhaps, Yogesh, but repairing any component that was subjected to voltaic arc that caused a destructive tracking is practically impossible. The materials become degraded and there is nothing to do in these cases. Thanks for your observations.

Thanks, Anthony. Undoubtedly, the way you propose is valid too.

Of course, Philip. Exactly to be rare is the chance to share.

In reply to Parasuraman S.

Thanks a lot, Parasuraman. Indeed, this task is intricate a bit, but it functions. And yes, I don´t present so many articles as you. The reason is that I don´t deal with maintenance. I only do it when there is a necessity from my home or from my relatives.
