The proper installation procedure for the quality assured connection!
The proper installation of terminals, splices, and connectors is very important
to the efficient performance of an electrical system. The properly installed
connector will enable good conductivity through the termination. A poor
termination results in a high-resist ance connection. A poor connector
installation may cause damage or failure of an entire system. Certain
basic requirements must be met to make a good termination.
Before the connector or terminal is installed on the conductor,
follow these recommended practices:
• Strip the insulation carefully to avoid nicking
or cutting conductor strands
• Strip the insulation to the proper length so the conductors can
be inserted fully into the connector barrel; the wire/cable should
be visible in the inspection hole of the lug; the proper strip length
can be found on page F-45.
Installation Procedure
1. Train the wires to eliminate
fanning of strands.
2. Open handles fully.
3. Insert terminal in proper die nest
and locate it as shown above.
When crimping a butt splice,
position in proper die nest
with window facing indentor.
4. Close handles slightly to secure
terminal. Do not deform terminal.
5. Insert properly stripped
wire into terminal.
6. Complete crimp
by closing handles.
