I know we have a few electricians and others who have done wiring.
I am wiring my shop with AWG 12 stranded wire in conduit. To connect to outlets I need to use forked spade crimp terminals.
The charts say to use #10 yellow connectors but the #8 blue slides nicely over the stripped wire.
Can I use connectors from an auto parts store or Ebay. Mouser want 16 cents and Newark 22 cents each. On **broken link removed**they are 7 cents.
