Is it possible for PCB assembly house to solder a stranded wires to THT holes as shock-resistance?

I have designed a PCB which needs wires soldering to THT holes. Is it possible to outsource this?

Yes unless the design is optimized. If the PCB is an automotive electronics solution, it should not only withstand slight shocks, it should also withstand vibrations and some harder shocks.It is advisable to use only those connectors designed for such cables and don’t solder the cable at all. There are additional strain-relief parts for those connectors and cables.

Or, you can ask for design tips from your assembly house to ensure successful mass production.

Can PCB test points be a source of noise?

If I want to design a PCB with as much noise immunity as possible, should I leave off test points? Can PCB test points be a source of noise?

Can through-hole leads be cut filed level with the PCB back while maintaining good connectivity?

I’m looking at using a through hole mounted CR2016 battery holder on a circuit but the leads need to be level with the back of the PCB due to size constraints.

What are primary and secondary sides of PCB?

I am designing a 2 layer PCB with components on both side of it. SMT components are one one side of PCB, but TH (through hole) components are on both sides. I need to understanding something mentioned by the supplier called primary and secondary sides.
