Communication 4-5
Wire ends stripped ¼-inch
 Cut off the old stripped ends (when applicable) back to the
jacket.
 Use the small side cutters to carefully remove 4 inches (10
cm) of the jacket, and cut away the tension strands and any
other unnecessary jacket materials.
 Using the wire strippers, select the appropriate gauge and
strip ¼ inch (6mm) from the end of all conductors. Twist
each wire end to prevent fraying.
3. Carefully tape together the loose bundle of wires using vinyl
electrical tape. Form a taper covering all of the wires, keeping
it as thin as possible so that it can pass easily through the
communication cable entry fitting on top of the EMU.
