Check the fit

Compare the actual conductor type and AWG first, then the connector's required exposed length. The tool is uninsulated and is for de-energized work only.

When to choose it

The solar-specific 11069S grips and strips in one squeeze, using machined holes sized for the documented PV conductors. The separate 11081 stop is worth considering if the connector documentation calls for the same strip length across a batch.
