What is essential for successful electrical connections during installation?

Successful electrical connections during installation rely on having sufficient slack to allow for movement. This is essential because it accommodates thermal expansion and contraction, which can occur due to temperature changes. Additionally, sufficient slack accommodates any mechanical movements that may happen over time, reducing stress on the connections and preventing premature failure or disconnection.

If the wiring is too taut, any slight movement can place strain on the connections, leading to potential failures, shorts, or breaks in the circuit. Having the right amount of slack ensures that the system can expand and contract without compromising the integrity of the connections.

Overall, ensuring a balance of movement while maintaining secure and reliable connections is critical for the longevity and safety of the electrical system in underground storage tank installations.
