The following general construction notes should be followed when wiring focal planes

copper wire omega engineering PN TFCP-005-100ft, .005 inch diameter, AWG36, Teflon coated.
Constantine wire omega engineering PN TFCC-005-100ft, .005 inch diameter, AWG36, Teflon coated.
copper wire should be used for VSS.
copper wire should be used for heater wires, i.e. for SDSU and Astromed heater.
All other wires should be Constantine wire.
Radio Spare 399-417 Red 1mm tubing should be used for connector pin isolation.
Outputs, e.g. A-OUT, OUTC, should be twisted with dummy ,e.g. A-DUMMY, wire.
