That sounds ok. Look for the maximum number of strands for the gauge. And crimp when anywhere near the bending, do not solder.

Hi cjack

Quick question what is the "code or designation" for the maximum number of strands for the gauge? I am looking on line and I am seeing all kinds of 12 and 14 AW gauge wiring that is stranded, I am completely lost with the stranded.

That data is usually not stated. You have to ask. They would state 14 ga awg stranded as  "40 strands of awg 50" or some such.
