Actually, bending wires to a certain extent is against NEC standards.
Source NEC 300.34
“The conductor shall not be bent to a radius less than 8 times the overall diameter for nonshielded conductors or 12 times the overall diameter for shielded or lead-covered conductors during or after installation. For multiconductor or multiplexed single-conductor cables having individually shielded conductors, the minimum bending radius is 12 times the diameter of the individually shielded conductors or 7 times the overall diameter, whichever is greater.”
If you aren’t a professional electrician I don’t recommend giving advice that can potentially harm someone.
