I would be very interested to have it confirmed where when and how, that ---, " the trailer wiring connector I mentioned is an approved wiring device that has been certified for use specifically in the automotive field." i.e. by other than the manufacturer.
Unless these tap-on connectors are applied to the exact cable they are designed for, i.e. Insulation thickness, material, wire gauge, number of strands, in respect of both cables, the conductor is very liable to damage and the damage is not obvious. Without standing in a cow pat, I have many times witnessed the evidence.
