2.1.6 Double Crimp Arrangement
The default recommended method is to double crimp although single crimps may be suitable
for crimping 120mm² cables and smaller. Each crimp should be positioned centrally within
the contact crimp area. The crimp area is between inspection hole and end of contact. If a
single crimp is used, the crimp should be positioned centrally within the crimp. Crimp in the
order shown to ensure a satisfactory crimp. Consult the factory if any additional information
or advice is required.
