When you attach a connector to a cable, follow these restrictions and guidelines:
•
After crimping, make sure the connector and cable are tightly bonded.
•
Make sure the cable conductor is not exposed, and cut off the exposed conductor in time.
•
The crimping should be completed once, and avoid secondary crimping.

Procedure
1.
Strip off an appropriate length (length L1 as shown in the figure) of the cable insulation sleeve.
FigureB-2 Cable conductor length
NOTE:
You can adjust the length of L1 as needed. Typically, L1 is the L plus 1 to 2 mm.
2.
Route the cable through a heat-shrink tubing.
3.
Attach the ring terminal to the cable conductor, and press the ring terminal against the cable
sheath.
