Ground off top section is under D
Tip of D is ground off from the weld point to the left of B
A is the small projection that should locate in end of the white plastic at
B
G locates over small nib of that plastic on the other side
F insulator , still in the stem is not long enough at the other end, for to
stop D touching C
E is the "hank shank" form
Although the cable is anchored firmly at the crimp forks, the "solder tag"
can easily twist if the wires inside the sleeving twist, or looking at it
again , nothing much stopping the tag shifting axially if the whole cable is
tugged . Pulling on the cable dit not ellicit any problem , twisting of the
cable did though
