WIRE QUALITY
      
      If your wire looks like that the entire length then just toss it. When it
      looks like that, it's often surplus garbage someone sells online that has
      been water damaged/submerged for extended periods of time.  Of course I'm
      admittedly biased, but I always wonder why people try to step over a dollar
      to pick up a dime when it comes to just using the right wire on your plane
      to begin with. You can wire the entire airplane with brand new, high
      quality, known quantity wire for single hundreds of dollars.
      
      
      On top of that, the double shielding is a pain to work with now and in the
      future.               
      
      
      Just my 2 cents as usual.
      
      
      Cheers,
      
      Stein

      Hello,
      
      
      I have attached a photo of wire that I have put into my project. 
      
      
      The designation is M22759/34-14 90484, printed in green on the white
      insulation. Please note the double insulation, a blue sheath under the
      white.
      
      I have not noticed this double insulation on any of my other wires.
      
      
      The problem I have is that the wire seems to be badly tarnished and I am
      unable to solder it. I used paste flux on a small piece and the solder still
      will not stick.
      
      The sample is from the center on a long piece that has been cut so it is not
      as if the end could have corroded.
      
      All my other joints on this wire have been  crimp joints and I just did not
      notice the bad discoloration on this wire.
      
      
      My question is will the crimped joints be OK?
      
      
      Is this wire OK or could it be counterfeit?
      
      
      Thanks
      
      
      Mike
