Thomas & Betts 10RC-250F – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What wire gauge does the yellow 10RC-250F disconnect crimp?
Yellow insulation on a T&B STA-KON RC terminal is the 12-10 AWG range, and the barrel on the 10RC-250F is built for that gauge. The vinyl insulator accepts wire insulation up to 0.25 inch outside diameter, so standard THHN or appliance wire in that gauge seats without trimming back the jacket.
2) Which crimp tool do I need for a 10RC-250F STA-KON terminal?
ERG4001 is the recommended tool. The terminal is also qualified for the WT145C, WT2000, WT112M and ERG4003. A generic hardware-store crimper will deform the brazed seam barrel and you lose the tensile strength the terminal is rated for, so stay with one of those dies.
3) Can I use this insulated disconnect on a 480V motor control circuit?
The 10RC-250F is rated 600V, so 480V control wiring is within rating. Temperature rating is 105 degrees C, which covers typical panel and motor-terminal-box heat. The vinyl insulator carries a UL 94 V-0 flammability rating, and the terminal is UL and CSA recognized.
4) What is the difference between the female 10RC-250F and a male 250 disconnect?
The 10RC-250F is the female half, the one that slides onto a .250 x .032 blade. If the component you're wiring has no tab of its own, you need the male disconnect and a female on the other side to complete the pair. For a permanent screw-terminal connection rather than a quick disconnect, a ring or fork tongue terminal in the same 12-10 AWG range is the part to use.
5) How many 10RC-250F terminals come in a pack, and can I buy fewer than 50?
They sell by the each, but the order multiple is 50, which is also the inner bag count. The full outer carton is 250 pieces. So quantities go 50, 100, 150 and up; there is no 10-piece or 25-piece break on the RC-250F.
6) Is the 10RC-250F terminal brass or steel, and will it corrode in a damp mechanical room?
The body is brass with an electro tin plating. Tin over brass is the normal choice for general indoor and mechanical-room work and keeps the crimp interface from oxidizing against copper conductor. It is not a marine or sealed terminal, so in a wash-down or outdoor location you'd want a heat-shrink insulated disconnect instead.
7) Will the 10RC-250F fit in a crowded terminal block or tight J-box?
Overall it runs 1.03 inches by 0.29 inch with 0.04 inch stock thickness, so it's a compact fully-insulated body that sits close alongside neighbouring terminals. Allow for the wire bend radius behind it; the 0.29 inch dimension is what governs side-by-side spacing on ganged tabs.
8) Is the T&B 10RC-250F RoHS compliant for a spec job?
Yes, it's RoHS compliant under exemption 06, which is the standard exemption covering copper-alloy and tin-lead content in connectors. Submittals on the RC series also list UL and CSA.
