Is Stainless a good electrical conductor?
hi..
I have a question.
I built a custom motor cycle and I welded a stainless steel bung to a chromoly frame as a grounding point for all the electronics.
My problem is that the bike will run for a month…month and a half and then the bike dies usually because of a failed battery. This has happened 4 times within 6 months.
Is stainless a good cunductor for electricity?
This bike is wired exactly like the last bike I built except for the stainless grounding point….just wondering if that could be a problem.
Stainless steel is an excellent conductor
