CAUTION
Some components may be sensitive to high temperature.
17. Cure the epoxy per the manufacturers instructions.
18. After the epoxy has cured clean the area.
EVALUATION
1. Visual examination for alignment and overlap of wire.
2. Electrical tests as applicable.

OUTLINE
This method is used on printed wiring boards to replace damaged or missing con-
ductors on the printed wiring board surface. A length of standard insulated or non-
insulated wire is used to repair the damaged conductor.
CAUTION
The conductor widths, spacing and current carrying capacity must not be reduced
below allowable tolerances.

PROCEDURE
1. Clean the area.
2. Remove the damaged section of conductor using the knife. The damaged con-
ductor should be trimmed back to a point where the conductor still has a good
bond to the printed wiring board surface.
NOTE
Heat can be applied to the damaged conductor using a soldering iron to allow
the conductor to be removed more easily.
3. Use a knife and scrape off any solder resist or coating from the ends of the
remaining conductor. (See Figure 1.)
4. Remove all loose material. Clean the area.
5. Apply a small amount of liquid flux to the ends of the remaining conductor. Tin
the exposed end of each conductor using solder and a soldering iron.
6. Clean the area.
7. Select a wire to match the width and thickness of the conductor to be replaced.
Cut a length approximately as needed. See Table 1 for Solid Wire Equivalents.
8. Strip the wire and tin the ends if needed. Non-insulated wire may be used for
short repairs if conductors are not crossed.
9. Clean the wire.

ends of remaining conductors.
