But if there was no such plane, you would only have a thin trace. The thermal relief is used because the conductance of heat is so good that it's difficult to solder the pad. That also means that electrical conductivity is ridiculously good; more than you usually need. | |

Spacing, spelling, and edited title to reflect the question.
