Simply design your wire circuits around your peak load requirements. Yes, tinned is better. But only if you have not properly installed your terminals and protected the termination point. Therefore, liberal use of dual wall shrink tube. Look at it this way, even the finest auto manufacturers use SAE wire under the hoods of some very expensive vehicles. They follow strict manufacture and installation procedures. Can you say QS9000?
