How to Install and Crimp NSI PT/PTS/PTO Pin Terminals

Install NSI PT, PTS, or PTO pin terminals by selecting the correct connector, preparing the conductor, and crimping it with the specified die and number of crimps. Follow the strip-length and tool requirements for the exact catalog number to ensure a safe, code-compliant connection.

Tools needed:

Wire stripper, Wire brush, Approved crimping tool, NSI die or listed equivalent die set (for the specific catalog number)

Supplies needed:

NSI PT, PTS, or PTO pin terminal connector, Conductor/cable to be terminated

  1. Select the correct terminal and die

    Identify the exact PT, PTS, or PTO catalog number for the cable size you are installing, then choose the matching die and crimp count from the chart. Use only the listed or equivalent UL-approved tools for that connector size.

  2. Strip the conductor to the specified length

    Carefully strip the insulation to the charted strip length for the selected terminal. Do not nick or damage the conductor strands, and make sure the stripped length is long enough to fully fill the connector barrel.

  3. Clean the stripped conductor

    Wire brush the stripped portion of the conductor to remove oxide films and contamination. Keep the conductor clean so it can make full contact inside the connector barrel.

  4. Insert the conductor fully into the barrel

    Insert the cleaned conductor completely into the connector barrel so the stripped portion fills the barrel. Verify that the conductor is fully seated before crimping.

  5. Crimp the connector with the specified die count

    Crimp the connector using the correct die and the exact number of crimps listed for the catalog number. Apply the crimps in accordance with the tool and die instructions, and confirm the finished connection is secure.

  6. Verify code compliance and safety

    Inspect the completed termination to ensure it is properly crimped and installed by a qualified electrician in accordance with national and local electrical codes. Follow all applicable safety practices and heed the cancer and reproductive harm warning provided by the manufacturer.
