And any nick sufficient to cause a problem inside a wirenut is very
easy for even the uninitiated to spot. If the wires are properly
pre-twisted with a pair of lineman's pliers, it will be immediately
obvious if there is a problem. it does not take an experienced eye to
do this stuff.


The easy way to check is just to bend it. If it's not going to flex,
it'll usually break right away.

Using the right hole on the wire stripper almost never nicks the wire bad
enough to cause a problem. Don't worry about it.
