Abstract:
A crimping tool for an electrical connector includes a frame defining an interior, a handle rotatably coupled with the frame, and a receptacle disposed within the interior of the frame and configured in size and shape to receive an electrical connector. The crimping tool further includes a push member, coupled with the handle, configured to apply a compressive force to an electrical connector disposed within the receptacle responsive to actuation of the handle relative to the frame and a blade coupled to the frame, to the receptacle, or to the push member, so as to be actuatable to cut excess wiring from an electrical connector disposed within the receptacle.
