TIPS ON HEAT SHRINKING
1.
Heat shrink is used
to insulate an
electrical connection,
like a solder joint, to
prevent the connection
from shorting.
2.
Slide the heat shrink
all the way up to the
switch, completely
covering the solder joint
and solder lug.
3.
Wave the flame from
a lighter or the tip of a
soldering iron near the
positioned heat shrink
until the wrap constricts
to a firm hold. Allow
heat shrink to cool.
