[CAUT] WAPIN INSTALLATION: LIVE!

[Jim Busby]

Tim,

I've only seen the three pin Wapin configuration and thought that was
THE standard. Is there a web or pictures that show the two pin method? 

Thanks.

Doesn't explain why a two pin Wapin configuration works just as well as 
the Wapin three pin configuration.  Two pin configuration has the same 
mass as a traditional pinning.

We prefer the Wapin three pin configuration for margin of safety.  The 
safety is the undo criticism from techs who find any little aspect to 
find fault.  It really doesn't matter for any other reason.  And yes, 
stability tests have been done.
