Thanks you for agreeing with me that that is what Ademco recommends.

Neither did I.

You seem to be confused.
I never said anything about electrons.  Just stated what Ademco recommends.
Now just so you won't be confused, this is what I say:
Solid wire is better at higher frequencies and for back bone applications.
Stranded is more flexible and better for patch cords, its use should be
kept to a minimum in comm circuits because of its greater attenuation
characteristics.
Have a nice day:)
