Heat Shrink Tubing

This kit contains a 6 inch (15 cm) length of 3/8-inch heat shrink 
tubing which you will cut into three pieces, and a 12 inch (30 
cm) length of 1/8-inch heat shrink tubing for the shield wire.

To install heat shrink tubing

1

Crimp terminal rings and fuse holder ends, then position all 
heat shrink tubing in the locations shown in the illustration 
that follows.

2

Use a heat gun to shrink tubing.

3

Use the 1/8-inch shrink sleeve tubing over shield wire to 
prevent contact with other live (powered) circuits.

Note

: Make sure that the negative input connector 

wires connect to pins 1 and 2 of the input connector. 
Check that the other two wires connect to pins 3 and 
4 of the input connector. Be sure to separate and pull 
out the shield wire.

Note:

 Tubing must be in place before terminating 

wire ends.

Green and white wires (negative)

Red and black wires (positive)
