To install:
- We find that folding the wires back on themselves, effectively doubling the wire thickness, helps when screwing the wire nuts on. Bare enough wire so that you will be able to fold it back on itself.
- Take both wire ends and twist them together, or wrap one around the other.
- Insert the twisted wire ends into the wire nut.
- With light pressure, screw the wire nut onto the end of the wires.
- If the wire nut is properly installed it will be screwed onto the end of the wires and will not come off if pulled.
