----- Item 3 -----
 
 
Hi, I need help interpreting an IPC 610 specification!
This is my first attempt at using the internet, so I'm anxious to see any
response.
 
In IPC-A-610 rev B, section 9.1.9, page 95, under the section entitled
"Solderless Wrap-Damaged Insulation & Termianls":
 
For FIG 9-20, I feel there's a conflict between what's acceptable and what's a
defect.  It says its a defect for Class 3 if the "base metal is exposed".
However, just above that statement, listed Under Acceptable-Class 1,2,3 Item
B, nicks, scrapes gouges, etc. are okay "not exceeding 25% of wire diameter".
 
I interpret this to mean the accept condition allows up to 25%, while the
defect condition doesn't allow anything.  Am I missing something?
 
I would appreciate any advice, by sending to me(Gary Wiltscheck at 3M, New Ulm,
