When you're using a twist-on connector to splice a stranded wire with a solid wire, it's a good idea to strip an extra 1/8 inch of insulation from the stranded wire, and to hold the wires together so the stranded wire extends 1/8 inch past the solid. This helps the wire connector...
Next, pull the wires you want to splice through the clamps so the exposed ends are inside the junction box. Pull them far enough in so the clamp closes over the wire casing. At that point, you can twist the wires together with their counterparts-- make sure you match colors and twist ...
9 put the shields back over the wires. Solder the shield strands, and just wrap or encase the wires with the foil. 10. Slide 1/2 inch heat shrink over. Done. I will post pictures that will show each step. I even had to splice in 6 feet of cable for the FF transducer....
Take one set of wires that you intend to splice and place the ends/terminals next to each other—negative to negative (-), positive to positive (+). You want the wires to be in-phase. If you're unsure,test the speaker wires with a battery. Using the wire cutters, strip off the ex...
Splice the two wires together with a piece of electrical tape. Step 5 Turn on the circuit breaker for the pool pump and activate the pump normally. Once water is flowing to the heater, turn on the heater as well. If the heater activates and warm water recirculates back to the pool, th...

How to Splice Two USB Cables Together Step 4 Wind the wires from one portion of the cable around the corresponding wires from the other, making sure that you match the colors of the insulation on each wire when doing so. Wrap electrical tape around each spliced wire when done. ...
Step 1 Strip about 1/2 inch of the wire insulation off the wires you plan to splice together using your wire stripping tool. Video of the Day Step 2 Insert the copper and aluminum wires into the splice-bolt connector opening. Check the placement of the wires to ensure that the alloy spa...
The steps are essentially the same as basic splicing, but things are different after you’ve stripped and unwound all eight of the wires on both ends you want to splice together. Once the wires are unwound and aligned, twist the corresponding color-coded wires from each cable. Be sure that...
The ground wire is already bare but I'll need to remove insulation from the black, red, and white conductors before they can be connected to a device or to a splice. Excerpting from HOW to CONNECT WIRES to a RECEPTACLE or SWITCH Above I'm showing the wire strip-back gauge area marked...
