Ideal Industries 84-9791 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What wire sizes do the IDEAL nylon fully-insulated female disconnects cover?
Three wire ranges are offered: 22-18 AWG (84-9771), 16-14 AWG (84-9781), and 12-10 AWG (84-9791). Pick the one that matches the conductor you are terminating; crimping a 16 AWG conductor into a 22-18 barrel, or an undersized conductor into the 12-10, gives you a connection that pulls out.
2) Are IDEAL 84-97 series female disconnects fully insulated or just a vinyl sleeve?
They are fully insulated with a nylon body, not a short vinyl sleeve. The insulation is shouldered at the barrel so the terminal seats in the crimp tool at the right depth, and the entry is expanded to take a range of conductor insulation diameters while supporting the jacket behind the crimp.
3) Why do these female quick disconnects resist pull-out better than plain barrel terminals?
Two construction details do the work: internal serrations inside the barrel bite into the strands so the conductor resists being pulled back out, and the barrel uses a butted seam so it will not split open when you crimp it down hard. The serrations also cut contact resistance at the joint.
4) Female vs male disconnect: which one goes on the wire feeding a switch or motor terminal?
The female disconnect is the receptacle half, so it goes on the conductor that slips over a male tab, the spade terminal on a switch, relay, contactor coil, or motor lead. If the device you are wiring to already has a blade sticking out, you want these. If the device has a female receptacle, you need the male half instead.
5) Will these disconnects hold up in a damp or outdoor-rated enclosure?
The terminal barrel is tin-plated brass, which resists corrosion better than bare steel, and the nylon insulation is tougher than vinyl against abrasion. Brass also keeps resistance low at the crimp. Protection still depends on the enclosure rating, not on the terminal.
