Thomas Betts TV10-BS-XV Butt Splice Terminal Yellow 75 Pack

Product Description

The THOMAS BETTS TV10-BS-XV is a fully insulated vinyl butt splice terminal designed for making secure, inline wire-to-wire connections in electrical wiring applications. It uses a crimp-on connection method, allowing electricians and electrical contractors to create fast, reliable splices without the need for solder or open-flame tools. The terminal measures 1.024 inches in overall length and 0.248 inches in overall diameter, with a copper contact and a yellow vinyl insulation sleeve. The yellow color coding identifies the wire gauge range this terminal is intended to serve. This part is sold in a package quantity of 75.

This butt splice terminal is suited for residential, commercial, and light industrial wiring work where insulated inline splices are required. It is commonly used during panel work, fixture wiring, appliance repair, HVAC control wiring, and general electrical rough-in or service work. The crimp-on design makes it compatible with standard ratcheting crimping tools, speeding up repetitive splice operations on the bench or in the field.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified electrician in accordance with the National Electrical Code (NEC) and any applicable local codes. De-energize and lock out the circuit before making any splice connections. Use a calibrated ratcheting crimping tool sized for insulated vinyl terminals to ensure a full, gas-tight crimp — do not use pliers or non-ratcheting tools, as an incomplete crimp can result in a high-resistance connection or pullout failure. Inspect the insulation sleeve after crimping to confirm it has not cracked or split.
