For wire insertion to Phoenix connectors, the following procedure is recommended:

1. Strip the wire end.

2. Twist the exposed strands tightly and tin the ends.

3. Crimp an appropriate size ferrule on the end of the wire.  Be sure that the ferrule is crimped

on bare conductor metal, not the insulation.
