It&rsquo;s a nightmare scenario. That&rsquo;s why we stick with Teflon (PTFE) coated wiring. It handles the heat. When these heaters hit peak temps, the PTFE doesn&rsquo;t melt or flake away—it just stays put.</p> <h2 id="why-we-obsess-over-testing">Why we obsess over testing</h2> <p>We don&rsquo;t do &ldquo;sample checks&rdquo; here. Every single wire gets a full voltage withstand test before it even thinks about leaving the shop. Here&rsquo;s the thing: a wire can pass a basic continuity test and look perfectly fine, but it might have a microscopic pinhole or a thin spot in the coating. You won&rsquo;t see it with your eyes. But when you hit it with a high-voltage load? Those weak spots scream. If we see any leakage current above the spec, that wire goes straight into the scrap bin. No exceptions.</p>
