Gardner Bender 10-001 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What wire sizes does the Gardner Bender 10-001 grey wire nut handle?
The 10-001 WireGard is the grey connector, rated for #22 through #16 AWG copper (1 mm2). It is a copper-to-copper connector only, so don't use it on aluminum or on copper-to-aluminum splices. For anything heavier than #16, step up to a larger WireGard size.
2) Can I use these grey twist-on connectors in a light fixture or sign, or just in building wire?
Both. The WireGard grey connector is rated 600V max in building wire and 1000V max in lighting, fixtures/luminaires and signs. That covers fixture whips, ballast and driver leads, and sign wiring within its #22-#16 AWG copper range.
3) Will these hold up in a hot fixture can or an attic junction box?
The shell is flame-retardant and resists heat distortion up to 105 degrees Celsius (221 degrees Fahrenheit), which is why it suits fixture canopies and recessed housings where ambient temperature climbs. That is a shell rating, not a substitute for using conductors with the right insulation temperature rating for the enclosure.
4) How big is one of these grey wire nuts? I'm working in a crowded device box.
Each connector measures 0.578 x 0.328 x 0.328 inches out of the package, so it's one of the smaller twist-on connectors and takes up little box fill on low-gauge control or fixture splices.
5) Does the 10-001 connector leave bare copper exposed at the bottom?
No. The high-dielectric shell uses a deep skirt design specifically to keep bare wire from being exposed below the connector, which is what inspectors look for on a twisted splice.
6) Do I need a driver or nut setter to get these tight?
No tool required. The square-wire zinc-plated spring adjusts to the shape and size of the splice as you turn it, and the connector is built to reach required torque in fewer turns than a standard wire nut, meeting or exceeding UL pull-out and dielectric test requirements.
7) Which Gardner Bender wire connector color is which size?
Grey is the small end of the WireGard line: model 10-001 covers #22 to #16 AWG copper. If your splice includes #14 or larger conductors, or you're combining more than a couple of small conductors, the grey will not seat properly and you need the next size up in the WireGard range.
8) How many wire connectors come in a box of Gardner Bender 10-001?
The 10-001 grey WireGard ships 100 per carton, one model number, no finish or size options to pick. The packaged carton measures 3.3 x 2.7 x 1.7 inches and weighs 0.8 oz.
