I have a home-made momentary switch box. The wires at the other end connect via adapter with little gates(guillotine style) that screw down against the wires. (see picture)
I plug the adapter in and out about twice a month, and the little wires always pull out, snap, break, etc.
I know this is probably a super basic question, but how can I secure the wires so they are sturdy, and can withstand normal use? I've thought about connecting them and then filling it with hot glue, but I'm guessing that's a bad idea. Are there some sort of wire tips I can install on the ends and then plug that into the adapter gates? Or maybe this adapter is standard and there are other options for inserting wire? Any ideas are helpful and welcome.
Here are a couple other pictures if helpful:
