Thomas & Betts 35P – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What wire sizes will a Thomas & Betts 35P twist-on connector take?
The 35P handles conductors from 18 AWG up to 8 AWG, so it spans everything from thermostat and fixture wire through the heavier 8 AWG feeders you would splice in a panel or junction box. That range is what makes it a general-purpose box connector rather than a small fixture-only nut. Combinations still need to fall inside that 18-8 AWG window.
2) Is the 35P wire connector rated for 600 volt line-voltage circuits?
Rated 600 V, which covers standard branch circuits and feeders in commercial and multi-family work as well as line-voltage lighting and receptacle splices. It is listed under UL E9809 and CSA 6591.
3) Can I use this twist-on connector in a hot location like a recessed fixture or an attic junction box?
The 35P is rated to 302 degrees F (150 degrees C), which is above the 90 degree C insulation most building wire carries, so heat inside a fixture canopy, an attic box, or near a ballast is not what limits it. Molded from thermoplastic polymer. Check the fixture's own maximum wire temperature marking, since that is usually the lower number.
4) Do these wire nuts need a crimp tool or any other installation hardware?
No tool and nothing else to buy. The 35P installs by twist, so you strip, hold the conductors even, and turn the connector down by hand until the wires twist together inside the shell.
5) How many Thomas & Betts 35P connectors come in a box or a case?
They pack 100 per inner box and 800 to the outer carton, so a case is eight inner boxes. Handy if you are stocking a service truck off one carton or standardizing an MRO shelf across several crews.
6) Does the 35P wire connector meet the UL and CSA listings our facility spec calls for?
Listed under UL E9809 and CSA 6591, at 600 V. For institutional and government submittals the UNSPSC code is 39121445, twist on wire connector.
7) What color are the Thomas & Betts 35P wire nuts, and what part number do I order?
Black shell, ordered as Thomas & Betts model 35P. Color matters on a job where crews sort connectors by size at a glance, so if your other openings and boxes are stocked with a color-coded system, know that the 35P reads black rather than the more common tan or red.
8) How much does a box of 100 of these wire connectors weigh for shipping or a takeoff?
1.44 lbs per 100 connectors. Inner boxes measure 3.5 x 3.5 x 5.75 inches and the outer carton 16 x 7 x 6 inches, which is what you need for a bin layout or a material list.
