ELECTRICAL WIRING REPAIR - GENERAL. - continued
4-24.
(3) Splicing Wires.
To repair broken or cut wires that are otherwise sound, the mating ends can be stripped and spliced.
Solder and apply insulation as described above.
(4) Crimping Terminals.
To install a terminal on the end of a wire, strip 1/4 - 1/2 inch (0.6 -1.3 cm) of insulation fromm the end of the
wire, apply a one-inch (2.5 cm) piece of heat-shrink tubing (if the terminals are of the uninsulated type).
Insert wire-end into the shank of the terminal. Crimp the shank and install heat-shrink tubing, if
necessary.
NOTE
Preferred repair methods consist of replacing wires, terminals, connectors, etc.,
rather than splicing wires, bending ends to form terminals, and other make-shift
procedures, although the latter may be appropriate for emergency field repairs.
(5) Determine the proper size and length of wire, or the terminal, or connector to be used for replacement
