Completed Cable Ready for Connection to Vehicle
Finishing the Cable Ends
Both large (3/8 inch) and small (#10) terminal rings are provided
in the kit. A small (#10) terminal should be crimped to the shield
wire and then fastened to the vehicle chassis.
To prepare the cable ends
1 Strip 1/4 inch (0.6 cm) of insulation from individual wires.
2 Crimp the terminal ring onto white-green twisted pair
(negative).
3 Crimp one end of the fuse block on the red-black twisted pair
(positive).
Crimp a similar gauge wire or twisted pair of wires onto the
other end of the fuse block and then a terminal ring on the
other end of this wire (see previous Completed Cable
illustration).
4 Crimp the small terminal ring on the shield wire.
Note: Be sure to attach shield wire to the metal
surface on which the power supply is mounted.
All crimps should be checked to ensure the wire is
completely captured in the terminal ring or fuse
holder. Loose connections will fail.
