Whenever I crimp a 22AWG wire into a red terminal I'm always thinking: "not much wire for the terminal to grab onto. I wonder if this thing is going to hold."
Is it good (or not good) practice to strip extra insulation away and double over the wire before inserting it into the terminal and crimping it? It seems like the terminal has more to grab onto doing it this way, but perhaps somewhere there is a prohibition against doing this?
Any thoughts? Thanks.
