Recently a machine control schematic was sent to me for approval. The
engineer had specified insulation displacement terminals, but he had
specified unmounted splice type joints for the control wiring distribution.
I rejected these terminals and told him he needed to mount traditional
terminal blocks. I did not find any specification that specifically
rejected the use of the "loose" joints, however and was ultimately overruled
by the cost saving argument. Since I would like to quote chapter and verse
to support myself, has anyone any reference or experience with this question
to offer?
