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

insulated single crimp insulated dual crimp

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. Wire strand ends are visible. Proper insulation spacing (C).

PREFERRED

DUAL CRIMP INSULATED

The contact has been deformed only by tool indenters. Indents are symmetrical and properly located. Insulation crimps are properly set to provide appropriate strain relief. No exposed base metal. Proper insulation spacing (C).

uninsulated crimp

PREFERRED

UNINSULATED

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. Wire strand ends are visible. Proper insulation spacing (C).
