28 AWG DIY ferrules for screw terminals

In another post, a user asked how to terminate 28 AWG wire in a screw type terminal strip.

@6v6gt suggested to use a Dupont crimp connector to act as homemade ferrule.

Below shows how this process can be accomplished.

Add heat shrink to act as a strain relief.

The colour of this heat shrink can identify the terminal number to use:

  • Yellow would be terminal #4

  • Brown and Yellow would be #14, etc.
