Best way to add terminals to 2/0 wire?
Go to your electrical supplu house or an electrician you know and
borrow their heavy duty crimper that makes a secure barrel
crimp. Then put heavy duty shrink tubing on the connection covering
the connector and the part of the cable itself so no wires are
visible. Make sure the tubing has adhesive inside,
