Thomas Betts C10-14F Fork Terminal 600V 1/4 Inch Stud

Product Description

The THOMAS BETTS C10-14F is a standard fork terminal designed for secure, reliable wire termination in electrical panel work, control wiring, and general-purpose wire management applications. The terminal uses a crimp connection method, providing a solid mechanical and electrical bond without solder. Rated at 600 volts, it is built with a copper contact body and a tin (TiN) contact plating that resists corrosion and maintains low contact resistance over time. The non-insulated, yellow-coded design makes it easy to identify wire gauge groupings at a glance during installation and inspection. Licensed electricians and panel technicians are the primary installers for this type of terminal.

This fork terminal fits a 1/4 inch stud and features a fork width of 1/2 inch and an overall length of 0.98 inches. It is suited for residential and commercial electrical work where a removable, screw-lug connection to a terminal block, bus bar, or equipment stud is required. The crimp-style connection is compatible with standard hand or ratcheting crimp tools commonly found in electrician tool kits. Sold in packages of 50 units.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed electrician in accordance with applicable NEC requirements. De-energize and lock out the circuit before terminating or removing any wiring. Use a properly calibrated crimp tool rated for the terminal size to ensure a full, uniform crimp — never use pliers as a substitute for a dedicated crimping tool. Inspect the crimped connection for deformation or incomplete seating before restoring power.
