A conductor positioning fixture includes a base and a retainer member. The base includes a positioning platform and a wedge projecting upward from a top surface of the positioning platform. The base receives a cable on the top surface of the positioning platform such that exposed segments of first and second conductors of the cable extend along opposite sides of the wedge. The retainer member is mounted to the base and movable relative to the base along a longitudinal axis between a retracted position, at which the retainer member is spaced apart from the wedge, and an extended position, at which the retainer member overlaps the wedge. As the retainer member moves from the retracted position towards the extended position, the retainer member engages and forces the exposed segments of the first and second conductors into designated presentation positions.
