I should have been more specific I suppose. The coil is a degaussing coil in the hull of a ship. This is formed by one turn of a large multicore cable which effectively forms a number of turns. Due to the way the hull is constructed and equipment fitted, the cable cannot form a perfect loop...

Does anyone know the likely effects on the magnetic fields produced if a coil is wound in a non linear fashion around a former. For example, if the wire was wound in a castellated pattern, i.e. around the former for part of a turn then along the former for a distance, then around the former for...

Thnks for the replies, they were very helpful. Although the terminations are on low current control wiring, I still had an issue with possible loosening over time. I am glad that bootlace ferrules were mentioned because I have now found that our Engineering Standards state that these are to be...

Thanks for that Don. Can you tell me if this is a flat pin or one that will squash to some degree when tightened. The problem with the old design was that the pin was fairly solid and did not deform when tightened. This resulted in a relatively small effective contact area.

On my previous contract, I took issue with the use of round pins on cables being terminated into blocks that had flat clamping surfaces. Because these were in an area of constant low level vibration, problems with loosening and current carrying capacity were evident, due it seems to the small...
