5.2. PLASTI-GRIP Terminals and Splices

NOTE

i

PLASTI-GRIP terminals and splices feature a wire 

"insulation support" only.

1. Set insulation adjustment indicator in Position 4 
for wire having a large insulation diameter.

2. Set insulation adjustment indicator in Position 3 
for wire having a medium insulation diameter.

3. Set insulation adjustment indicator in Position 2 
for wire having a small insulation diameter.

4. Set insulation adjustment indicator in Position 1 
for wire having thin wall insulation. Terminal or 
splice insulation should ideally be in contact with 
wire insulation.

6. CRIMP INSPECTION

Inspect crimped terminals, splices and spare wire 
caps by checking the features described in Figure 6 or 
Figure 7.
