When you are wiring two bolt heads together, such as prop bolts, the first
one is twisted one direction and the second one is twisted the other.

the wire which goes around the bolt head stays in place. Doing it the other
way tend to move the wire so it crosses the top of the bolt head.

A bit difficult to visualize, but a bit of practice will make it clear.


Thanks! Found some good visuals in AC43.13-1B (where I should have
looked in the first place). Chapter 7 Section 7. For those who want
to look it up & don't have it, the AC is available in Word format at:

And if you don't have Word, you can get the free Word Viewer at:
