Is burn wire considered safe?

[FRC121]

Would burn wire, a small guage wire that disenegrates when current is applied to it be allowed? A few inches would be used for the sole purpose of ramp release and would be replaced each match. The part passes the flow chart as long as it is considered safe.

Per Rule <R85> if this wire is not copper, it is not permitted.

If it is copper wire, it is impossible to answer this question without a complete, detailed inspection of the specific implementation. We must ask you to use your best engineering judgement to assess whether your particular application poses a realistic potential for damage to the field or field equipment. If there is any question, you may want to ask one of the experienced veteran teams in your area to consult with you to help you determine the best course of action.
