To connect AC wires with the crimp-on butt-splice connector:
1. Using a wire stripper, carefully strip 5/16” (8mm) from the ends of
the two wires being connected.
2. Insert one wire into one end of the butt-splice, insert the butt-splice
into the crimping tool, and crimp firmly. The proper location for the
crimp is approximately 1/16” (1.6mm) past where the butt-splice
insulation tapers down as shown in Figure 2-4

3. Repeat Step 2 for the other end of the butt-splice.
4. Tighten the cable clamp to secure the wiring so that it grips the outer
cable jacket (not the individual wires).
5. When all connections are completed, push the wiring with connectors
inside the wiring compartment. Install wiring compartment cover and
fasten with the blunt-tip screws and lock washers supplied.
6. Continue the installation by connecting the other end of the AC
wiring to your AC source observing the color code described above.
Note: You must exercise care when crimping butt-splice connectors.
Use a crimp tool designed for this type of connector such as a Panduit,
catalog number CT100, CT160, or CT 260.
