That's a good point .. I should look at what our vendors are doing for their crimps on VFDs. I know that at least one of them is using copper buss bar instead of cabling inside the power section. They can bend the buss much sharper than they can bend cables. Plus the buss is bolted to insulators, so it does not move around or rub against other cables, edges, etc during high current events.
But I have not paid much attention to what they've done with the crimps on the cables that they still use.
