Sta-Kon RA323 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What wire gauge does the Sta-Kon RA323 ring terminal crimp onto?
The RA323 is sized for 22 to 16 AWG stranded copper conductors, which is the red insulation color code on nylon insulated terminals. If you are terminating 14 or 12 AWG, you need the blue (16-14) or yellow (12-10) range instead, not this one.
2) Is the Sta-Kon RA323 UL listed for use in a panel inspection?
It is covered under UL file E9809, so it is a listed wire connector for the 22-16 AWG copper range at 600 V. That file number is what an inspector or a submittal package will want to see.
3) Should I use a ring terminal or a fork terminal on a terminal block?
A ring terminal like the RA323 has to come off the stud entirely to be removed, which is exactly why it is used where vibration or an accidental pull could back a connector out, such as motor control, panel grounds, and equipment landings. A fork or spade slides out from under a loosened screw, which is faster for service work but less secure. For a #4 screw landing that you do not expect to disturb, the ring is the safer choice.
4) Is the barrel on the RA323 copper or aluminum, and can I put it on aluminum wire?
The conductor barrel is copper, so it is intended for copper conductors only. Aluminum building wire needs a terminal rated AL or AL9CU; using a copper-only barrel on aluminum risks a bad connection.
5) Does the nylon insulation on the RA323 hold up better than vinyl?
The sleeve on the RA323 is nylon rather than vinyl. Nylon resists abrasion and cut-through from pulling wire through a raceway or a dense panel better than vinyl, and it is the usual choice when the terminal will be flexed or bundled tightly.
6) Is the Sta-Kon RA323 made in the USA for a government or Buy American job?
Country of origin on the RA323 is the United States, which is what a federal, municipal, or institutional procurement package usually needs documented.
7) What part number do I order for the red 22-16 AWG #4 ring terminal?
Order Sta-Kon manufacturer part number RA323. That single part covers the red 22-16 AWG insulated ring with the #4 stud hole.
