IDC failures after 10 years?

<p>Is it possible that the broken strands have been pulled farther than the blade width apart over time, thereby increasing the voltage drop across the break. Also depending on the IDC used, I have noted multiple strands (4-5) broken when I took the connector apart (I was curious how many strands got broken). I also measured the resistance across and found nothing at time of install (i understand not the same thing as voltage drop).</p>
