What is the proper wire nut size for 12 2 wire?
Look on the box or bag that the wire nuts came in, there you will find all of the combinations of wire sizes that can be connected together under one nut.
How do you split one circuit into two branch loads within a junction box?
You should have black (hot), white (neutral) and bare wire (ground) coming into junction box. The two circuits leaving the box should use the same size wire which should be sized for the branch breaker and you just use a wire-nut to connect all black wires together, another wire-nut to connect all white wires and a third wire-nut to connect together all ground wires. Since you are splitting into two branches, all wire-nuts should have three wires of the same color.
Can you splice solid copper wire to stranded copper wire?
Yes as long as you use an approved splice, such as a wire-nut.
What is electrical wire color code for brown?
Different colours mean different things in different countries, but in the UK remember Mr Brown is a live wire.
What do you do with the extra blue wire on a replacement ballast?
Cap the extra wire with the appropriate size wire nut so that it will not short out against grounded objects.
How do the starter wires go on?
The main battery cable (red in color) will mount onto the large stud on the back of the starter solenoid. Piggybacked along with the main battery cable is the alternator wire (orange in color) Both wires are held on by a 13mm brass nut. The last wire which is purple in color mounts to the small stud on the solenoid, and is held on by a 9mm or 10mm nut.
What color is areal wire in ford transit?
I guess you mean aerial?. the wire is black, about the thickness of a pencil.

Is the striped color on wire the actual color of the wire?
No, example- If the wire is blue with a white strip, (which is your remote wire for the amp turn-on) the wire is blue, the strip is not the color.
What does it mean tan wire?
The color coded jacket is so you can look it up on a wiring diagram for whatever it is to see what the wire goes to.

Is it possible that a man can nut and doesn't know it?
What do you mean by "nut"? What does it mean for a man to "nut?"
What is the most common way of making an electrical connections?
The most common way of making an electrical connection is with a device called a wire nut. Solid wire connections should be twisted together with a pair of pliers before installing the wire nut to hold the splice tight. Twisting stranded wire together with a pair of pliers does not allow the wire nut to grip the wires as tight as it should. Stranded wire should be held together side by side (in parallel) and let the wire nut twist the wires together to make a solid splice connection.

Can you leave the red wire on a 12 gauge wire not wired to anything?
Sure. Just cap it off with a wire nut.

Yes as long as you use an approved splice, such as a wire-nut.
How do you get rid of an electrical outlet?
Just make it a junction box. Remove the outlet, tie the blacks together under a wire nut. The the whites together under a wire nut. Tie the ground wires together under a wire nut. Push all the wires back into the outlet box and cover it with a blank cover. Paint the cover the same color as the wall. Do not sheet-rock over the outlet box. All junction boxes must be accessible.
