Permanent Identification Crimping Guidelines for Panduit ® Pan-Term ® Terminals, Disconnects, Splices and Wire Joints (continued) Insulated and Non-Insulated Wire Joints A. Properly strip wires per manufacturer’s recommendations on product package label. B. Twist stripped wire ends together and insert wires into wire joint. C. Locate wire joint in appropriate wire gauge crimp die pocket and position crimp in the center of the metal insert. D. Squeeze tool handles firmly to perform the electrical crimp. (See Note 2 below) Note: An insulation crimp is not required on an insulated wire joint. NOTES for Crimping with the Preferred Hand Operated Controlled Cycle Crimping Tools: 1. Panduit controlled cycle crimping tools properly locate rings, forks, and barrel insulated disconnects, pins, and blades. No further positioning is required. 2. When using the preferred controlled cycle tool, once a crimp has been started, the ratchet device of controlled cycle tools will not release until the crimp is complete, independent of operator expertise. 3. Controlled cycle tools provide the electrical crimp and the insulation closure in a single cycle of the tool. 4. When using controlled cycle tooling, insulated butt splices must be inserted from the back of the tool to ensure that the electrical and insulation closure crimp pockets are properly aligned with the splice. Steps A and B Steps C and D Complete Crimp 5. Perform the electrical crimp using the preferred controlled cycle tool A. Make sure the terminal barrel is centered correctly in the right die pocket by using the product locator on the backside of the tool. B. Determine the correct die pocket to use based on the color code of the terminal. C. Squeeze the handles of the tool until one click is heard; this click indicates the terminal is now held in place securely to insert the wire. D. Insert the wire and complete cycle to perform the electrical and insulation crimp simultaneously. E. Crimp is complete. Step A Step B Step C Complete Crimp 6. Inspect the crimp Note: If your crimp looks like any of the examples shown below, cut off the terminal and re-crimp. These crimps would provide a poor connection!
