Abb rb14-6 Ring Terminal 18-14 Awg No. 6 Bolt Blue

Product Description

The ABB rb14-6 is a nylon insulated ring terminal designed for secure, insulated wire-to-stud connections in electrical wiring applications. Rated for 600 volts, it accommodates 18-14 AWG copper conductors and fits a No. 6 bolt hole. The terminal body is copper with tin plating for corrosion resistance. A high dielectric-strength nylon sleeve provides self-insulation, while an inner bronze insulation grip sleeve extends the flexing radius of the conductor and helps prevent conductor creep over time. Electricians and electrical contractors install these terminals where a clean, code-compliant ring termination is required on control panels, junction boxes, and general wiring assemblies.

The rb14-6 is suited for residential and commercial electrical installations where 18-14 AWG wire must be terminated at a No. 6 screw or stud. The blue color coding follows standard industry AWG color conventions for the 18-14 AWG range, making identification fast during installation and inspection. Typical applications include control wiring, panel terminations, appliance wiring, and general-purpose low-voltage branch circuit connections where a fully insulated ring terminal is specified.

Key Features

• 600-volt rating suitable for standard branch circuit and control wiring
• Nylon self-insulating sleeve with high dielectric strength
• Inner bronze insulation grip sleeve reduces conductor flexing stress and prevents creep
• Tin-plated copper construction for corrosion resistance and reliable conductivity
• Blue color coding for quick AWG range identification in the 18-14 AWG class
• UL Listed under file E9809

Compatibility

Designed for use with 18-14 AWG copper conductors terminated at No. 6 bolts or screws in standard electrical wiring applications.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed electrician in accordance with the National Electrical Code (NEC). De-energize and lock out the circuit before terminating any conductors. Use a calibrated ratchet crimping tool rated for insulated ring terminals to achieve a proper crimp — do not use pliers or uncalibrated tools, as an improper crimp can cause connection failure. Inspect the nylon sleeve after crimping to confirm it is intact and fully seated over the conductor insulation.
