==== Resistance Brazing====
In this process the resistive heating under electric currents is the source of thermal energy. For contact applications two methods are used for resistance brazing ''<xr id="fig:Resistance brazing (schematic)"/> (Fig. 3.8)''.<figure id="fig:Resistance brazing (schematic)">

During Direct Resistance Brazing the electric current flows straight through the joint area composed of the contact tip, brazing alloy, flux, and the contact carrier. These components are secured between the electrodes of a resistance brazing machine and heated by an electrical current until the brazing alloy liquefies.
