Place two end of bare wire in crossed position. Then, twist the bare conductors about five to seven times. b) Strip the wire ends for about 75mm. Place the wires in crossed position bout mid halfway from the situation. Make four to six long twists of wires. c) Make a 90-degree bend to make a shoulder at the end of each wire. Then place them back-to-back and wrap a smaller gauge wire around the whole thing. 6) How is Y-Splice made? a) Place the tap wire on top of the first wire. Hold both wires using the pliers. Tighten the joints using the combination pliers. Straighten the wires using the pliers. b) Place the first tap wire at the center, hold it using pliers then wrap to the main wire. When it’s difficult to wrap a wire, use another plier to wrap the wire and tighten the joints. c) Remove about 1.5 inches of insulation from the running wire. Take the connecting wire and tie it in a knot onto the running wire to create a knotted tap splice. If you don't knot and just twist, this is a regular tap splice. 7) What are the different types of joints? a)     b) 8) Which of the following pictures is the Britannia joint? a) b) c) 9) Which of the following pictures is Rat tail? a) b) c)
