A brief introduction about heat shrink technology and where can we use it.

Crimp systems are designed to compact the wire strands together to a set level so that no interstitial spaces (gaps) are left between the strands. This stops both moisture and oxygen entering the crimp and therefore prevents corrosion from occurring.

Solderless terminals are used to finish the connection to thousands of different electrical installations. They are very versatile and come in many styles to suit many applications. They are made of copper (economy versions use brass) and they are tin-plated to prevent corrosion.

Knowing the basic wire types is essential to almost any electrical project around the house. When you’re install new wiring, choosing the right wire or cable is half the battle. And when you’re examining existing wiring in your home, the wiring type can tell you a lot about the circuit the wiring belongs to. Any new electrical installation requires new wiring that conforms to local building codes.
