Thomas Betts 17276-TB Butt Splice Terminal Black

Product Description

The THOMAS BETTS 17276-TB is a butt splice terminal designed to create secure, inline electrical connections between two wire ends. This connector joins conductors end-to-end inside a cylindrical barrel, forming a continuous circuit without the need for a junction box. Finished in black, it is sold as a single unit. Electricians and low-voltage installers use this type of terminal in panel wiring, control circuits, and field splicing applications where a compact, reliable connection is required.

This butt splice terminal is suited for residential and light commercial electrical work, as well as control wiring in HVAC, automation, and similar trade applications. It is appropriate wherever an inline conductor splice must be made cleanly and efficiently. The single-piece packaging makes it practical for targeted repairs or small-run installations where only one connection point needs to be addressed.

Key Features

• Inline butt splice design joins two wire ends without a junction box
• Black color finish for identification and organization in multi-wire installations
• Compact form factor suited for tight wiring spaces
• Sold individually, allowing single-point replacement or repair

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement butt splice terminal for use in standard electrical and control wiring applications where an inline conductor connection is required.

Installation Notes

Butt splice terminals are installed by licensed electricians or qualified trade professionals in accordance with applicable NEC requirements. Always de-energize the circuit and verify zero voltage with a meter before making any splice connection. Use the correct ratcheting crimp tool rated for the terminal type to ensure a full, gas-tight crimp. Do not pull-test the splice by hand without first confirming the crimp is complete and seated properly.
