For line cross sections of up to 1.5 mm2 the stripping length (a) is 4 mm, for line cross sections from 1.5 mm2 to 4 mm2 the stripping length (a) is 5 mm.
Select crimping set (4) for

- Check crimp connection for correct shaping and filling.
Correct crimp connection (A): The strands of the line are uniformly enclosed. The crimp tab is evenly shaped.
Wrong crimp connection (B): The crimp tab has the wrong cross section and it is not completely filled.
Wrong crimp connection (C): The individual strands are partly outside the crimp tab. The crimp tab is too full.
Wrong crimp connection (D): The crimp claws touch the base of the crimp, crimp tab is wrongly shaped and damaged.
