Crimp Connectors

[JohnD]

a butt connector is safe for the same current as the cable that fits it.

You can get them with a heat-shrink sleeve attached, which does a nice job. Practice doing a few crimps on scrap cable to get your hand in. Pull on them quite hard, they must not come apart. Use the proper ratchet crimper, not the lightweight one as used on car electrics.

2+2 = 5 comes to mind.

Not really.

Why do you think I'm going to use them with 10mm cable??????

I don't.

But you are clearly going to use them on something and yet earlier you said

I'm not installing anything myself, but just interested in the correct way of doing things

 

[RyanM]

Correct, I am going to use them.

Nothing related to what I have asked about on here. Thanks for the input though, really helped.
