3.6. Wire Selection and Preparation

The receptacle contacts accept a stranded wire size range of 28 to 17 AWG and tinsel wire with an insulation

diameter between 0.81 and 2.79 [.032 and .110].

The wire strip length must be between 3.56 and 0.39 [.140 and.0155]. Reasonable care must be taken during

the stripping operation to ensure the wire is not nicked, scraped, or cut.

3.7. Crimp Requirements

The receptacle contact must be crimped to the wire according to instructions packaged with applicable tooling.

Cutoff Tab and Burr

The cutoff tab and burr must not exceed the dimension given in Figure 8.

Wire Barrel and Insulation Barrel Crimp

The wire barrel flash, wire barrel crimp height (not including flash) and width, and insulation barrel crimp

height and width must not exceed the dimensions given in Figure 8.

Wire Conductors and Insulation Location

The wire insulation must not enter the wire barrel. Both the wire conductors and insulation must be visible

between the insulation barrel and wire barrel. The end of the wire conductors must be flush with or extend

no further than the front of the wire barrel to meet the dimension given in Figure 8.

Bellmouths

The front and rear bellmouths must not exceed the dimensions given in Figure 8.
