Re: Blue vs Yellow crimp connectors

I have another dumb question -
What's the best terminal size for the motor controller screws? According to IFI's Victor 888 site, the screw is a 6-32.
However #6 spade connectors appear to be awfully small in surface contact area. The units we have been using don't seem to have screw size numbers on them, just wire size.

I'd like to order a bunch but don't want to get it wrong, was first thinking #8's, but according to the data for Victors, should I go for #6 spade connectors?

Thanks again for everyone's great inputs!
