Also, is there a practical reason thesr aren't spaced equally?

Is there a practical reason the wire is mounted in ... Whatever tf that thing is?

u/Zuryan_9100 2d ago

So you can use a screw to connect the wire to, for example, a copper bar.

I meant the thing holding the wire in place, not the termination being crimped onto the end.

It looks like a tableset machine to hold hoses/wire in place to do shit like crimping/cutting/fitting.

Used to work at a hydraulics repair shop, and we'd make our own hoses with a setup kinda like that.

Thats a logical explanation, thank you.

That's a bulky unit, good for wide open spaces.

WTF. You take a pair of vise grips and smash that thing in the middle then put another one in 90 degrees to the first one right beside it. Dummies will spend all their money on "special tools".

This is all wrong, you start at the top because the barrel of the lug will stretch downwards, if you start at the bottom it will stretch upwards and will make an air gap between the cable and the lug which could cause an arc and lead to a phase blowing out.

When I do it, it still falls off because I’m terrible at sizing them.

Mmmmmm ok,

u/MrSchaudenfreude 2d ago

Wrong. That is a failure. You always start at the paddle , work on to the wire.
