## Discrepancy

CRACKED CONNECTOR DIRECTLY BELOW THE SCREW HEADS WAS FOUND ON MULTIPLE CONNECTORS.  THIS PARTICULAR UNIT SHOWS VISIBLE SIGNS OF ARCING.  BOTH CONNECTOR PNS HAVE SAME TYPE OF CRACKING, PN BV5-01258 AND BV5-01261 ARE THE CONNECTORS.  THIS IS ONE EXAMPLE OF SEVEN UNITS THAT WERE SENT TO THE SHOP, THESE WERE ALL FOUND IN THE SHOP PROCESS.
