Assembly of an electric cable with a cable terminal

Method for crimping a cable terminal onto an electric cable includes providing an electric cable having an outer insulation sheath and at least one conductive strand with a sheathed portion, and providing a terminal having shrink wings and provide a gasket having a sealing portion and a shrink portion. The method also includes stripping the electrical cable so that a stripped portion is formed, positioning the shrinkage portion of the joint so that it directly overlaps the stripped portion of the cable without the shrinkage portion overlapping the sheathed portion of the cable, and fully crimping the shrink wings onto the shrink portion of the joint without the shrink wings covering the sheathed portion of the cable.
