Power Cable Assembly
Pretty & Painful option
1. Group the wires together & stagger the ends a bit to give the overall
profile a taper. (If you have some electrical tape, taping the ends together
can make it even easier.)
2. Work the braided sleeving over the wires.
3. Slide heat-shrink tubing over braid. If the braid ends are frayed, wrap
a piece of tape around the circumference to get the tubing over it. Slide
the tubing to the middle of the cable.
4. Separate the wires and strip about 0.25"/6.5mm from each wire end.
5. Place quick-connect terminal over wire ends and crimp securely.
6. Slide heat-shrink tubing towards cable ends until middle of tube is
aligned with end of braided sleeve.
7. Use heat source to shrink tubing. A hot air gun or boiling water

is best,
a lighter or match also work but can leave scorch marks and possibly
melt or ignite the sleeving.
1) Make sure to dry it before use if you use boiling water. Don't use Famine wet.
