Probably get some shiz for this, but gotta ask...
I'm getting closer to installing my BS 6006 and want to simply cut/shorten the X20 Winch pos. cable
and add new lugs to the cut ends. It seems the wire may be 3AWG (25 sq mm) Since I have way more
likely access/use out of 2 AWG lugs, can I simply add some strands into a 2 lug to fill it out for the 3 wire?
The diameter difference according to AWG chart looks like this:
2......0.258"......6.54mm......33.6mm Cross Sec.
3......0.229"......5.83mm......26.7mm Cross Sec.
I'd be using a Temco hammer crimper in my 20T press, so an extra baby squeeze should be enough to set the weld, ya?
Am I over-thinking this, or do I
really need to get 3G lugs to avoid a .71mm catastrophe?
