That shrink though ๐Ÿ˜ฎโ€๐Ÿ’จ

What happens here

Twist the exposed copper ends of the first pair of electrical wires together tightly. Insert the twisted wires firmly into a clear plastic wire nut. Twist the wire nut clockwise until it is securely fastened, ensuring a tight electrical connection and that no bare copper is visible outside the wire nut. For added security and mechanical strength, use crimping pliers to crimp the wire nut, reinforcing the connection.

Goal: Make and insulate the first electrical joint
