Crimp-type terminals shall, electrically and mechnically, connect to a pre-stripped end of a stranded copper wire and have a flat tongue portion with a central opening for mounting around a screw or stud.
The terminal line shall offer tongue variations in hole (stud) size (10, 1/4 in., 5/16 in., etc.) and configuration (ring, fork, block fork, flanged block fork, locking fork, etc.): and barrel variations in wire (AWG) size (22-18, 16-14, 12-10, etc.) and construction (non-insulated brazed seam, vinyl insulated butted seam, nylon insulated with insulation grip, etc.). The terminal line shall have regulatory agency coverage (UL Listing, CSA Certification). The terminal tongue shall be marked with the wire range and manufacturer’s symbol.
The non-insulated, brazed seam ring tongue terminal shall be tin-plated, annealed copper, with the tongue having a specified stud hole (size 10 thru 5/8 in.) and a brazed seam barrel with a beveled I.D. for ease of stranded wire entry, sized for a specified (AWG) wire range (8, 6, 4).
