How To Solder Two Wires Together

Cut the two wires in order to make sure that the copper core of the wire is not corroded or contaminated inside see image below.

How to solder two wires together. The process of soldering is taking two or more wires and joining them together and then using heat to melt electrical solder connecting those two wires permanently. Strip both wires back by 810 mm. Touch the tip of the soldering iron to the copper wires.

The process is carried out using a small amount of metal alloy known as solder and a heated handheld tool called a soldering iron. To gather stray strands into the intermingled bundle. Twist and fold 2.

First place the solder on the tip to allow for melting. Use tweezers pliers etc. When soldering wires with a big diameter it is not easy to bend or twist them.

This process should melt the solder and coat both wires evenly. The solder should flow freely onto the wire and coat it if its stranded wire the solder should flow into it and fill the wire. --- Dont forget to slide a piece of shrink tube over one of the wires before you do all this.

Another technique of soldering two wires together is the lap splice. The most secure and durable way to splice two wires together is to solder them. The process for soldering 3 wires together is the same as splicing 2 4 or even 10 of them.

When done properly you have a strong conductive connection that turns two separate wires into one. Bring both stripped ends together like shown in the image below. Tinning is the process of melting the solder around the wires.
