I am getting ready to install my rockerswitch panel and wire some accessories. This might sound like a rookie question but if I want to put two 14 AWG wire in a push on female terminal, therefore creating a jumper, what size should the female push on terminal be?

I use a 14-16 gauge connector and have no issues. The blue one.

Best way would be use piggy back spade connectors.

Do it with the blue butt connectors all the time, gotta get your wires tight though.

If you use a yellow connector you have to double the 14 Awg wire over to get a good crimp. I made my piggyback last night with a yellow connector because I had to do two 14 awg in and 2 out for the grounds for switch and lightbar.
