I know this is a bit PBO'y but what the hell (it might generate some discussion).
I've noticed a little verdigris on the terminals of the rocker switches for my battery master switches. I've cleaned them up but for the sake of £20 would like to replace them.
By and large, the wiring on my boat is pretty sound, without too much bodging in evidence. However, looking back at my photos I'm not very happy with the spade terminals as there seems to be far too much metal on show. So my questions are:
Would this have been the original crimping?
Would I be wise to re-crimp them (I have proper wire strippers and ratchet crimps onboard) with insulated crimp terminals?
What gauge would these wires be (12v)?
