Questions and Answers

A: That's the most common mistake — treating Category 3 like Category 4 in the math. The difference matters because CCF assumptions drive real field behavior, and ignoring them looks fine on paper until wear, contamination, or vibration aligns both channels.

A: That's where people stop at the symbol and miss the reference scheme. The difference matters because PNP vs NPN only becomes a fault when the common is wrong, and that shows up as flaky diagnostics long before a hard failure.

A: That's the trap — chasing peak torque when it's thermal headroom that's killing you. The difference matters because starts-per-hour and ambient stack heat, and a bigger frame buys margin the duty cycle math already warned about.

A: That's the classic sequence error — software first, physics later. The difference matters because vibration couples straight into shielding mistakes, and no amount of scaling fixes induced noise.
