| ❌ Mistake | ✅ Correct Approach |
|---|---|
| Using standard fasteners on aluminum without proper preparation. | Utilize specialized aluminum fasteners or apply anti-seize compound to prevent galling and ensure secure fastening. |
| Inadequate heat dissipation planning for electrical components mounted on the sheet. | Incorporate heat sinks or ensure sufficient ventilation around components to prevent overheating, leveraging the aluminum's thermal conductivity. |
