Step 7Twist the Matching Wires Together
Twist the corresponding wires together.
It looks like they'll all short out, but the thin lacquer coating is a decent insulator.
They won't short except where you've scraped the lacquer off at the tips.
The donor cable has single conductors. That's a sign of low quality and they won't last very long, even though I scavenged them off a first-class seat on my way out of the airplane.
Multi-stranded cables are much less prone to fatigue and break. The finer the conductors the better.
It's very important that you didn't nick those single conductors when stripping the cable. If they are nicked they'll break. Don't fidget with them.
