2. Aluminum building wiring - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aluminum_building_wiring

   COPALUM connectors use a special crimping system that creates a cold weld between the copper and aluminum wire, and is considered a permanent, maintenance-free repair. However, there may not be sufficient length of wires in enclosures to permit a special crimping tool to be used, and the resulting connections are sometimes too large to install ...

3. Punch down tool - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Punch_down_tool

   A punch down tool, punchdown tool, IDC tool, or a Krone tool (named after the Krone LSA-PLUS connector), is a small hand tool used by telecommunication and network technicians. It is used for inserting wire into insulation-displacement connectors on punch down blocks , patch panels , keystone modules , and surface mount boxes (also known as ...

4. 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.

5. 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 ...

   The bottom middle cable is missing its crimping collar. A wire and connector in a crimping tool. An electrical crimp is a type of solderless electrical connection which uses physical pressure to join the contacts. Crimp connectors are typically used to terminate stranded wire. [4]

7. Twist-on wire connector - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Twist-on_wire_connector

   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 industrial building power wiring, but have been banned in some other jurisdictions.
