    • Using your wire strippers/pliers, gently crimp the plastic insulation on the wire. Do this several times around the wire to make sure that you can pull it off.

    • Because the wire is so thin, it can be easy to accidentally cut all the way through the wire on this step. Take care to only cut through the insulation.

    • You will want to see a score line in the insulation all around the wire like this.

    • Pull the end of the insulation off, exposing the wire.
