See Section 2.01 "Crimped Terminations - General Requirements" for common accept/reject criteria.

single crimp insulated dual crimp insulated

PREFERRED
SINGLE CRIMP INSULATED

The contact has been deformed only by tool indenters. Indents are symmetrical and centered on the crimp barrel. No exposed base metal or other damage. Proper insulation spacing (C).
