Crimping of flexible cord conductors

PG
Like most of us, I often crimp flne strand conductors, especially for screw terminals but do not do this for domestic lamp holders and roses etc.

I thought that I would check Section 526 (Electrical Connections) of the Regs but did't find a clear statement of requirements for crimped ends. 

I was particularly unsure of what 526.9.1 was specifying for fine wire conductors "conductor ends shall be suitably treated".


Any guidance or comment would be appreciated.

    Great information,thanks Gents.

    It's a shame that it isn't distilled by the IET Regs authors into, say, a table in 526 or the OSG.

    Thanks again.
