Hi All,
Following my previous topic on joining the cable to my Oven isolating switch. TLC have just delivered my nice new Ratchet Crimping tool, some yellow butt crimps for the Red & Black and some blue ones for the earth
Now please don't shoot me down in flames, I have never used crimps before and want to do this properly and am looking for advice on the best technique for crimping.
Do I ...
Crimp one end then the other?
or
Position the crimper in the middle and crimp both sides in one?
I know this sounds really noddy, but I'd rather look a clown on this forum than get in wrong! (should really have bought a job lot of the sodding things and tried all permutations until I found the best method! ).
Many Thanks again.
Go easy.
Merv
