Panduit FTD82-14-C Insulated Twin Wire Ferrule

Product Description

The PANDUIT FTD82-14-C is an insulated twin wire ferrule designed to terminate two conductors into a single, secure connection point. Ferrules of this type are crimped onto stranded wire ends before insertion into terminal blocks, PLCs, or control panel screw terminals. The insulated collar provides conductor identification and strain relief while keeping individual strands contained. Licensed electricians and panel builders install these during control wiring and automation panel assembly work where clean, reliable terminations are required.

This twin wire ferrule is suited for residential and commercial control panel wiring, industrial automation enclosures, and building management system panels. It allows two conductors to share a single terminal point without loose strands creating shorts or intermittent connections. Applications include PLC input and output wiring, relay logic panels, and any low-voltage control wiring scenario where dual-wire terminal entries are needed.

Key Features

• Twin wire design accepts two conductors in a single ferrule body
• Insulated collar keeps strands contained and aids conductor organization
• Crimp-style installation ensures a gas-tight, vibration-resistant connection
• Compatible with standard ferrule crimping tools for consistent installation
• Reduces risk of loose strands causing shorts at terminal blocks

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style termination ferrule for use with dual-conductor entries on standard terminal blocks and screw-clamp terminals in control panels.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by licensed electricians or qualified panel builders. Power down and de-energize the panel or circuit before terminating any conductors. Use a calibrated ferrule crimping tool rated for the ferrule size to achieve a proper crimp — do not use pliers or non-rated tools. Follow NEC requirements for control wiring and terminal block connections applicable to the installation environment.
