It’s a small component that can make a big difference in the quality of a termination. When stranded wire is inserted directly into a terminal, individual strands can spread, bend, or get damaged during installation. A properly sized and properly crimped wire ferrule captures those strands and turns them into a clean, consistent termination. That…
