What happens here

As a final piece of advice, the father instructs the son on the importance of determining the correct stripping length for termination. He specifies that the length depends on the lug being used and suggests a range of 1 inch to 1 and a quarter inches (1.25 inches) as a common requirement. He confirms the son is now "good to go" for the job.

Goal: Understand and apply proper wire strip lengths for lug termination.

Thanks, Bob. >> Yep. >> All right, so I'm going to make some money, all right? >> Make it, baby. Make it. >> All right.
