ABSTRACT:
In desoldering soldered joints, an electrically conductive wick or braid, used to absorb molten solder from the joint, is connected to a ground conductor of the circuit of which the joint forms a part, thus preventing possible damage to voltage-sensitive circuit components, for example FET's. A solder-absorbent conductive wick is provided with connecting means for connection either directly or through an intermediate conductor with a ground conductor of a circuit in which a joint is to be desoldered by the aid of the wick. Connection to the circuit conductor may be by way of a first electrical connector portion mating with a second connector portion on a circuit board carrying the circuit. The first connector portion may be mounted on a jig or locating fixture arranged to receive the circuit board. The wick may be wound on a spool and have its end electrically connected to a contact member of an electrical connector portion mounted on the spool and connected to the circuit by way of a wire having appropriate connector portions at its ends.
