[CA11] Electrical connector for grounding drain wire with ACU-200 is too small

I'm installing an ACU-200 / EV-1 sail autopilot. During installation I found that the electrical connector provided for the "dedicated drain wire", a blade style connector, doesn't fit AWG 10 wire. It's smaller and seems to be perhaps AWG 14. But the manual recommends AWG 10 to 8 for the ACU-200.

I'm using AWG 10 and had to strip back some of the strands and jam it into the connector. Is this normal? Perhaps the wrong connector was packaged with this?
