Hi all. I want to extend the power flex on my mum's washing machine. I only have shielded crimp connectors. I noticed that the current flex uses female, uninsulated, open crimp connectors, the types that crimp at two points.
My two questions are, which size equates to my red spade connectors and will my ratchet crimper be suitable?
My crimper has a rounded receiving profile, others seem to have squarer profiles (what are the different usage applications?).
I realise that I could stick with my crimps and cut the insulation off the earth one but I would feel more confident using the types that were originally used given that washing machines have metal skins.
Thanks in advance.
