Abstract
The present invention provides a method and apparatus for securely crimping a crimp-style terminal to a small diameter conductor of a cable. A dummy conductor is prepared and a crimping portion of the terminal is crimped about both the dummy conductor and the conductor of the cable. The dummy conductor is a portion of second conductor of the cable, isolated from the conductor of the cable, or alternatively, a portion of a second conductor independent of the cable. A cutter cuts off the dummy conductor from the second conductor to electrically isolate the dummy conductor from the second conductor when the terminal is crimped about the dummy conductor and the conductor of the cable.
