Terminating wires
.. when I disconnect a cable from fixtures and want to just terminate it in a stand alone electrical box....I simply cut the wires clean and screw on the wire nut without stripping the insulation.
Should I strip the insulation before screwing on the wire nut or should I maybe just use insulation tape instead ?
This would be part of an active circuit....I am just unable to trace the cable back to the previous box.
Thanks!
