    I have seen a problem with copper wires turning black after a system level cyclic damp/heat test. The wires are inserted into a plastic (PBT?) header and soldered into a PCB using a no-clean flux and PbSn solder. The possible potential on the wires is 5 volts. I have managed to find reference...
