    Procedure:

    TASK 1: crimping of lug


    1. Collect the cable (multi strand copper conductor)
    2. Collect the spade connector suitable to the wire thickness and terminal size
    (6mm dia)
    3. Select the wire stripper blade size to match the wire thickness or adjust the
    jaws of the stripper.(fig 4)
    4. Strip off a length of insulation that suits the terminal size( spade
    connector).(fig 5)
    5. Twist the strands of the wire lighty in the direction of strands(fig6)
    6. Select the crimping pliers that matches with the terminal size
    7. Clamp the spade connector with the crimping pliers in the matching position
    of jaws
    8. Insert the wire far enough in the lug( fig 7)
    9. Apply light pressure to create a light impression on the lug
    10.Check whether the press is located in the middle of the band of lug and, if
    necessary ,make final adjustment
    11.Apply sufficient pressure in the handle to press the lug fully, as shown in fig
    12
    12.Check whether the prepared lug joint is firm by pulling the cable
