Abb 18RA-6 Insulated Ring Terminal 22-18 Awg

Product Description

The ABB 18RA-6 is an insulated ring terminal designed for reliable wire-to-stud electrical connections in a range of professional wiring applications. Built to accept 22 to 18 AWG wire, this ring terminal provides a secure, insulated termination point that resists pull-out and reduces the risk of accidental contact with adjacent conductors. Electricians and panel wiring technicians rely on terminals like the 18RA-6 for consistent, code-compliant terminations in control panels, junction boxes, and equipment wiring harnesses. The insulated sleeve protects the connection from abrasion and incidental contact during and after installation.

The 18RA-6 is suited for use in residential and commercial electrical work wherever insulated ring-tongue terminations are required. Typical applications include control panel wiring, terminal strip connections, equipment grounding, and low-voltage circuit assembly. It is commonly installed by licensed electricians and industrial maintenance technicians working on control wiring, motor circuits, and instrumentation panels.

Key Features

• Accepts 22 to 18 AWG wire for versatile control and power wiring use
• Insulated construction isolates the connection and reduces accidental contact risk
• Ring-tongue design secures to a stud or screw terminal for a stable, vibration-resistant connection
• Suitable for residential and commercial electrical panel and equipment wiring

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style insulated ring terminal for use with 22 to 18 AWG conductors in standard electrical wiring and control panel applications.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified electrician in accordance with applicable NEC requirements. De-energize and lock out the circuit before terminating or inspecting ring terminals. Use a calibrated crimping tool rated for insulated terminals in the 22 to 18 AWG range to ensure a secure crimp. Do not solder over a crimped insulated terminal, as heat can damage the insulating sleeve and compromise the connection.
