hehe no... the crimp on the end of wires in domestic plugs etc... generally used in anything sold with a pre-fitted plug (toaster, tv etc...)

you need the other type of crimpable fitting the sort used in commercial vehicle wiring, crimp it on the wire then cut the end off, it's the std way of joing several wires together
