Carefully remove the outer insulation from the end of the plug wire. Don't cut any more than necessary to get a good end on the insulation for the clamp to grab. Also, don't nick the core conductor, which must extend ~3/8" past the insulation. This is a little too much, but the insulation was torn. Cut off the excess conductor before proceeding.
