To connect AC wires with the provided crimp-on butt-splice
connector:
a) Make the connections using the provided crimp-on
connectors1 or with other approved connectors
required by your code, and suitable for your
installation.
For example, the ABYC Standards and
Recommended Practices for Small Craft prohibit
twist-on connectors for AC connections on a boat.
For other types of installation, refer to your
applicable code.
b) Using a wire stripper, carefully strip 8mm (5/16 in.)
from the ends of the two wires being connected.
c) Insert one wire into one end of the butt-splice, until
the insulation hits the internal metal crimp section,
insert the butt-splice into the crimper2, and crimp
firmly. The proper location for the crimp is
approximately 1.6 mm (1/16in.) past where the butt-
splice insulation tapers down as shown.
d) Repeat Step c for the other end of the butt-splice.
