This is pretty straight forward, usual warnings apply. Check clearances, insulate wire areas that may rub, use proper crimp technique, and fuse/breaker correctly.

Pulling the wire.



Expanding for jumpers.



Heat shrink.



Connecting up. Make sure all slip ons are tight, loose connection is a fire hazard.



Done.

I'm in the process of adding a few more myself this month. I like your sockets better than the ones I'm about to use. Where did u get them and how much?

The power goes to the socket on our right and the other wires are jumpers to the other socket.

If you insult them they are too embarrased to rub.
