If the terminal is a flag terminal or an upright terminal, make sure that:
• All of the strands of the conductor are in the crimp barrel
• The end of the conductor extends farther than the end of the crimp barrel
• The maximum distance from the end of the wire insulation of a single wire to the end of the
crimp barrel is 0.12 inch for AWG 10 and smaller, and 0.25 inch for AWG 8 and larger
If the terminal is not a flag terminal or an upright terminal, make sure that:
• All of the strands of the conductor are in the crimp barrel
• The end of the conductor extends farther than the end of the crimp barrel
• If the terminal lug has an insulation grip, the end of the wire insulation is in the insulation
grip of the terminal lug
• If the terminal lug does not have an insulation grip, the maximum distance from the end of
the wire insulation of a single wire to the end of the crimp barrel is 0.12 inch for AWG 10 and
smaller, and 0.25 inch for AWG 8 and larger
• The clearance from the end of the conductor is sufficent for the installation of the washer
and the nut.
(8) Crimp the terminal lug or lugs.
Make sure that:
• All of the strands of the conductor are in the crimp barrel
• The end of the conductor extends farther than the end of the crimp barrel
• If the terminal lug has an insulation grip, the end of the wire insulation is in the insulation
grip of the terminal lug
• If the terminal lug has an insulation grip, the crimp tool is adjusted to give the correct
insulation support. Refer to Paragraph 2.B.
• If the terminal lug does not have an insulation grip, the maximum distance from the end of
the wire insulation of a single wire to the end of the crimp barrel is 0.12 inch for AWG 10 and
smaller, and 0.25 inch for AWG 8 and larger
• If the terminal lug is not a flag or an upright terminal, the clearance from the end of the
conductor is sufficent for the installation of the washer and the nut
• If two flag terminals are assembled on the wire, the crimp of the flag terminal nearest to the
end of the wire is made first
• If two flag terminals are assembled on the wire, the distance between the terminal lugs is
correct for the installation.
NOTE: If two flag terminals are on the wire, the crimp of the flag terminal at the end of the wire
first, keeps the strands of the conductor together until the crimp of both flag terminals is
completed.
(9) If a secondary die is specified, crimp the terminal lug again with the secondary die.
NOTE: The second crimp removes the flash that is made by the first crimp.
NOTE: The removal of the plating from the terminal lug caused by the second crimp is permitted.
(a) Put the secondary die in the crimp tool.
(b) Turn the terminal lug one flat, approximately 60 degrees.
