   I think it is always a good idea to put the grease on as a preventative   
   measure. It will reduce the risk of corrosion and improve the metal to   
   metal contact (lower resistance) although that won't matter much unless   
   there is a bit of current flowing...   
      
   I am very pleased with the results of using Dow Corning #4 Electrical   
   grease and recommend it for protecting connectors.   
      
   Do not put it on moving electrical parts - I do not think it would help   
   for those, too thick for easy motion. It is not  a lubricant as fas as I   
   know.
