2. Crimp (joining) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crimp_(joining)

   Crimped connectors fulfill numerous uses, including termination of wires to screw terminals, blade terminals, ring/spade terminals, wire splices, or various combinations of these. A tube-shaped connector with two crimps for splicing wires in-line is called a butt splice connector. Single-wire crimp terminals include:

3. Electrical connector - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrical_connector

   Crimped connectors are a type of solderless connection, using mechanical friction and uniform deformation to secure a connector to a pre-stripped wire (usually stranded). [1] Crimping is used in splice connectors, crimped multipin plugs and sockets, and crimped coaxial connectors. Crimping usually requires a specialised crimping tool, but the ...

4. Aluminum building wiring - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aluminum_building_wiring

   The splice of the copper pigtail to the existing aluminum wire can be accomplished with special crimp connectors, special miniature lug-type connectors, or approved twist-on connectors (with special installation procedures). Pig-tailing generally saves time and money, and is possible as long as the wiring itself is not damaged.

5. Twist-on wire connector - Wikipedia

   End view showing metal inserts Twist-on connectors used in a junction box Twist-on wire connectors. Twist-on wire connectors are a type of electrical connector used to fasten two or more low-voltage (or extra-low-voltage) electrical conductors. They are widely used in North America and several European countries in residential, commercial and ...

6. Western Union splice - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Western_union_splice

   The 1915 textbook Practical Electric Wiring describes the construction of the Western Union splice; short tie and long tie. The short tie splice has it being formed after stripping the insulation from a pair of wires for several inches, each, crossing the wires left over right as shown in figure part A; then, a hooked cross (figure part B) is formed holding the crossing point of the two wires ...

7. IDC (electrical connector) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IDC_(electrical_connector)

   Modern IDC technology developed after and was influenced by research on wire-wrap and crimp connector technology originally pioneered by Western Electric, Bell Telephone Labs, and others. [3] Although originally designed to connect only solid (single-stranded) conductors, IDC technology was eventually extended to multiple-stranded wire as well.
