100% confirm on the wire nut thing. It's possible to get a good twisted connection with a wire-nut without pre-twisting, but conditions have to be just right, and must result in a properly twisted wire pair in the end, or it's just trouble waiting to happen.
- emilecantin 6y agoOne packet of wire nuts I bought came with a drill bit made to twist them on. I found it works way better than twisting the wires by hand, it creates a tight twist that's very hard to undo.
