Bullshit!

Wrong.  Stranded wire is less apt to break from repeated flexing.
That is the ONLY reason it's used in alarm screens (which are not
the same thing as "security screens" by the way.

A few manufacturers' manuals suggest stranded wire.  Most specify
only the gauge.  In no case is it due to a higher or lower
propensity to act as an antenna.

There's that "we" again.  But you are not an installer.  You're
just a counter clerk. You have no experience installing anything.
That's why you post idiotic advice to overload output circuits
and "warnings" of the supposed danger using a paddle bit.  Anyone
who has ever installed for a living would know you're totally
FOS.
