Me too, oops! Always thought crimps were for solid cables too always give them a good tug and to my knowledge never seen a burnt out crimp, but I have been proven wrong many times - mostly by the wife thoughWell it seems ive been doing it wrong for the past 10 years, along with loads of other people ive worked with. as ive always used crimps on solid core cables.
I like this answer as well , I bet you wouldn't of even asked the question.Back to the OP, what load is there going to be on the new sockets? If its small I'd do a spur from the CU to a FCU, then to the sockets. Far better IMHO
crimped lots of cables on house bashing, never had any problem, good ratchet crimper and insulated blue crimps do the job for 2.5 cable. its not nasa, those cables wont fly to space.
you can stick them in some wago too.
How many people on here would crimp a lug on a piece of MICC ?
Where would you use crimps house bashing?
