[QUOTE="DFS722, post: 8827104, member: 680268"] Always terminate my ends, if not lugs they go in input adapters. I also have my power and grounds running from dual amp inputs to a 2/0(350A) connector (commonly fork lift battery connector) to lugs connected to power and ground distribution. I just got some of those new set screw lugs from ill to try out. I like having the ability to take it off and the wire be used elsewhere and if a lug end is not needed. I also use adhesive lined heat shrink and all wires I try to have plenty of slack and/or secured in a way that if anything tugs on it the pressure is not on the end(P clamps, insulated clamps, AN clamps or zip ties) That's all in installs I do though. My s..t is crude as f..k! 😂🤣😂🤣 besides the forklift connectors, that's only in mine. [/QUOTE]
