Dielectric grease on fuses (was Fuse block (was Fuses))



Jim,

Unless someone can give you a positive report on using the dielectric
grease, I wouldn't experiment with it. It sounds too much like crimping a
solder connection. There is a rule concerning solder connections: It is
okay to solder a crimp connection, but never crimp a solder connection.
Solder, when melted to a piece of metal makes a good connection. But when
friction is holding the solder, it is a lousy connection that often heats up
melting/burning the solder and makes a general mess of things. It seems to
me that dielectric grease would be a similar situation except perhaps more
flammable. This grease (if it's the stuff I'm thinking of) is generally
used in low current applications where there is no heat generated to burn
it.
