Ideal Industries 84-9601 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What wire gauges do the IDEAL vinyl insulated female disconnects cover?
Two wire ranges are offered: 16-14 AWG (part 84-9581) and 12-10 AWG (part 84-9601). Pick the terminal that matches the conductor you are crimping. Using a 12-10 barrel on 16 AWG wire gives you a loose crimp that will pull out, and forcing 12 AWG into a 16-14 barrel will not seat.
2) Are these IDEAL disconnects sold individually or in bulk?
They come packaged in a box of 500, which is a shop or service-truck quantity rather than a handful for one repair. Property maintenance and MRO crews standardizing on .250 inch quick disconnects usually buy both gauge ranges by the box.
3) What are these female disconnect terminals made of, and will they hold up in a damp mechanical room?
The barrel is tin-plated brass, which resists corrosion, and the body is vinyl insulated. Tin plating over brass is the common choice for general indoor and mechanical-room use where humidity is a factor.
4) Do these terminals resist pull-out once crimped?
The barrel has internal serrations that bite into the conductor strands to resist pull-out and lower electrical resistance, and the seam is butted rather than open so the barrel will not split at maximum crimp pressure. That matters on vibrating equipment like blower motors and compressors.
5) Is this a disconnect switch or a crimp terminal?
It is a crimp-on wire terminal, not a switch or a disconnecting means in the code sense. A quick disconnect lets you pull a wire off a tab by hand for service, but it does not de-energize a circuit and cannot substitute for a disconnecting switch.
6) Will the insulation sleeve fit over thicker THHN or appliance wire jackets?
The insulation entry is expanded to take a range of insulation diameters and to support the jacket behind the crimp, so heavier-jacketed conductors within the stated AWG range still seat. The barrel is also shouldered, which stops the terminal at the right depth in the crimp die.
