I have my own thoughts on this question
BUT
I want to hear yours.
I see lots of discussion (mentions) of overcoming difficulties using stranded wire. Some methods include tinning the end or using a crimp on end to stick in the terminal.
Seems to me that tinning or crimping on a solid sleeve takes you right back to a solid conductor.
I wonder if it would be easier in the long run to use solid??
Admittedly drawbacks of solid include harder to pull in conduit and a little harder to "lay in" in a control panel or in Panduit and vibration.
