    I am taking a course and am stuck on a question I am not sure if I undertand. The question is "What products can be used to connect #14 stranded wire to a #8 screw terminal. So far I have come up with Fork/Spade terminal and ring terminal. I need 5 but I am not sure if I am on the right track. Would a mechanical lug and one hole compression lug with window? Not sure if I am on the right track. Any help would be apreciated.

    Thanks

    Start by examining the terminal that you are trying to connect the wire to.

    Then go look at some electrical supplier sites and match the connectors with the type of terminal. Use Grainger.com or Graybar.com as starting locations and search for "electrical connectors".

    Let us know how the search goes.
