ℹ️ Our practical test has the highest relevance and therefore the most weight. Here the product has to undergo a wide variety of criteria and tests. We check the functions and product promises of the test article.

Im field test we use the set to Cables of different cross-sections with the tabs connection. Here it is advisable to select the right ones as a first step Isolations pushed onto the cable ends. Once the plugs have been pressed, the insulation can only be pushed onto the plugs from the cable side. We start with a spade receptacle type 4.8. Now the end of the cable in question has to go so far stripped be sure that the exposed wires pass through the receptacle of the tab receptacle. In the next step, the blade receptacle in the Pliers inserted. The Recording the pliers have one expanse and close Page. The side of the flat stretch sleeve that points in the direction of the cable must be placed in the direction of the wide side. Now the pliers can up to about half shut so that the blade terminal sleeve no longer falls out. He helps with that locking mechanism, which holds the pliers together. Then it will Cables so in the inclusion of blade receptacle inserted in the pliers so that the insulation of the cable ends at the transition between the wide and narrow area.
Now she can Pliers completely shut until the crimping of the blade terminal sleeve is complete. The required force is medium high, but can be managed without any problems. The pliers make one stable Impression. The snap-in mechanism makes it easy to grip. Also the Emergency release the pliers work perfectly. After pressing, the last step is the insulation pushed over the flat plug sleeve.
In the tabs is the procedure identical, it can be no differences to press the tab receptacles. While types 4.8 and 6.3 can be crimped with cables with a cross-section of 1 mm² without any problems, Bricht when pressing the Type 2.8 with a cable of 0,5 mm² die cable intake of the flat connector. This can be done in several attempts reproduce. Indeed succeed the pressing in the holder for cable cross-sections between 1 mm² and 1,5 mm². But then the flat connector can be used light from the cable pull it off. That's why it has to be done again with the actually suitable recording repressed become. After that, the flat connector can only be difficult out of the tongs pull out, but is for that fixed with the cable Connection.
With larger cable cross-sections, flat plugs and flat receptacles can also be used without this procedure fixed with the cables Connection. Isolations hold well on the tabs and tab sleeves. The brass-colored tab sleeves in the transparent insulation also ensure a valuable optics.
The snap together of tabs and tab sleeves succeeds problem-free. The plugs snap Are defined in and hold fixed into each other. They can also be easily removed again to solve. only one Point of criticism on the connector is the insulation: A small amount remains between the insulation of the blade terminal and that of the blade terminal socket gap about a millimeter in length. A longer insulation of the blade terminal sleeve would remedy this.
