Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard brass alloys for high-current applications without verifying conductivity ratings.Specify electrical-grade brass alloys (e.g., C26000, C27200) with documented conductivity values suitable for the intended current load.
Inadequate surface preparation leading to poor electrical connections.Thoroughly clean and abrade the contact surfaces of the brass sheet to remove oxidation and ensure optimal conductivity.
