Abstract
A method for terminating cable having a plurality of individually insulated conductors covered by a sheath, first by slitting or removing slices of the sheath to expose lengths of said conductors, then spreading apart the conductors laterally from each other, precisely locating the spread apart conductors in a desired lateral adjacent spaced relationship, then electrically connection an electrical terminal to each of the conductors. Such terminals are either sequentially or simultaneously connected to the conductors. The terminals may be of the insulation piercing type. Alternatively, the individual conductors may be stripped and terminated with terminals which need not be of the insulation piercing type.
