Use pliers to twist and tighten the stranded wire onto the solid and then
twist your wire connectors onto the splice.

I have to make some connections inside an electrical box between #10 solid
and stranded #12.
I tried wirenuts, but it doesn't seem particularly secure.
I have only used crimp connectors on standed; can they be used on solid?
If not, then what? Thanks.
