Hey /ohm/,
I have a popular/cheap chinese 3D printer and I've been told that pic related is a fire hazard. It's the input wires to the small logic board from the power supply. They're 24V (probably lots of amps). The wires are tinned and they are pinched by those popular green block terminals.

Why is this a fire hazard? How do I fix it if it is? I've also been told that many people put ferrules on these wires. Why are ferrules any different than these tinned wires?
Thanks!
