[QUOTE="oakchas, post: 417511, member: 18746"] You are correct, technically. However, I've never had corrosion, nor a lack of sufficient contact when applying some grease to all the surfaces on equipment ranging from antique tractors and cars (with antiquated 6 volt systems) to late model earth moving equipment with 24 volt systems. And then I coated everything heavily after the connection was made. Back in the day, I just used Vaseline in place of fancy dielectric grease. NEVER had a failure. Just sayin'. Oh, and here's a link to someone with more actual knowledge and tests of the notion if you're interested: https://www.w8ji.com/dielectric_grease_vs_conductive_grease.htm [/QUOTE]
