Abstract
A method of method of resistance soldering may include providing a controllable electrical power supply having a negative pole and a positive pole. The method may include providing an electrical terminal having a first surface and a second surface opposite the first surface on which a solder layer is disposed. The method may include providing a resistance soldering device with an electrode having a first electrical conductor connected to the positive pole of the electrical power supply, a second electrical conductor connected to the negative pole of the electrical power supply, an electrically resistive bridge interconnecting the first and second electrical conductors. The method may include turning the electrical power supply on to provide an electrical current between the positive and negative poles. The method may include contacting the electrode to the first surface of the electrical terminal.
