Use a good ratchet crimper with good crimps on solid cores and you will have a sound permanent connection. The trick is to have a ratchet crimper that deforms the solid core within the crimp.

Welcome to th forum sizzler... to correct you; you need to read your regs quote again.its in reference to soldered connection, im confused to where your post is leading as the thread was discussing straight crimping.Note 2 on section 526.2 of BS7671 (aka 17th edition the wiring regs), which states: "Terminals without the marking R (only rigid conductor), F (only flexible conductor), S or Sol (only solid conductor) are suitable for the connection of all types of conductors
So have people's views changed at all on crimping?
