Cambridge 112768 Female Disconnect Awg 16-14 Blue Pvc

Product Description

The CAMBRIDGE 112768 is a female disconnect terminal designed for quick, tool-free wire termination in electrical wiring applications. It accepts AWG 16 to 14 gauge wire and features a 1/4-inch tab width for secure engagement with standard male spade terminals. The blue PVC insulation sleeve provides both electrical protection and visual identification of the 16-14 AWG wire gauge range, following the industry-standard color coding used by electricians and HVAC technicians. This terminal is suited for low-voltage control wiring, appliance wiring, and equipment harness connections where a reliable, removable disconnect point is required.

This female disconnect is commonly used in residential and light commercial electrical work, HVAC control panel wiring, motor terminal connections, and appliance repair. The 1/4-inch tab size matches the most common male spade terminal width found on contactors, relays, switches, and other electrical components. Electricians, HVAC technicians, and appliance service professionals use this style of terminal when a serviceable, push-on connection is needed without soldering or wire nuts.

Key Features

• Accepts AWG 16 to 14 gauge wire for a secure crimp connection
• 1/4-inch tab width fits standard male spade terminals on contactors, relays, and switches
• Blue PVC insulation sleeve provides electrical protection and wire gauge identification
• Push-on design allows fast installation and removal without specialty tools
• Insulated barrel protects the crimp zone and reduces risk of incidental contact

Compatibility

Designed for use with AWG 16 to 14 gauge wire and standard 1/4-inch male spade tab terminals commonly found on HVAC controls, relays, switches, and electrical equipment.

Installation Notes

Installation requires a ratcheting or plier-style wire terminal crimping tool sized for insulated disconnect terminals. Strip wire insulation to the correct length before insertion into the barrel, then apply a firm, complete crimp to secure the conductor. Always de-energize the circuit and follow applicable NEC guidelines before making or breaking terminal connections. Do not use a standard wire stripper jaw to crimp, as this may result in an incomplete or damaged connection.
