Thomas Betts TV14-250PD-XV Vinyl Disconnect 16-14 Awg

Product Description

The THOMAS BETTS TV14-250PD-XV is a fully insulated vinyl wire disconnect terminal designed for secure, reliable connections in electrical wiring applications. The blue vinyl insulation covers the full barrel length, providing both electrical isolation and a clear visual indicator for 16-14 AWG wire range. The 1/4 inch tab width accepts standard quick-disconnect receptacles commonly found in control panels, appliance wiring, HVAC low-voltage circuits, and general electrical assemblies. This terminal is rated RoHS compliant and meets UL 94 V-0 flammability standards, making it suitable for applications with strict material and environmental requirements. Licensed electricians and HVAC technicians are the primary installers. Sold in a package of 75 terminals.

This disconnect terminal is suited for residential and light commercial electrical work where quick, tool-free mating connections are needed. Common install scenarios include control board wiring in HVAC equipment, appliance repair, panel subassemblies, and field wiring harnesses. The blue color coding follows the standard industry color convention for 16-14 AWG terminals, allowing technicians to quickly confirm wire-gauge compatibility during assembly or service. The fully insulated design reduces the risk of incidental contact with adjacent conductors in tight wiring compartments.

Key Features

• Fully insulated vinyl construction for complete electrical isolation of the barrel and tab entry
• Blue insulation color conforms to standard 16-14 AWG color coding for fast visual identification
• 1/4 inch tab width accepts common quick-disconnect receptacles used across HVAC, appliance, and control wiring
• RoHS compliant materials meet environmental standards for restricted hazardous substances
• UL 94 V-0 rated insulation material for reduced flame propagation
• Package quantity of 75 terminals suits both service calls and production-level wiring tasks

Compatibility

Designed for use with 16-14 AWG conductors and standard 1/4 inch quick-disconnect tab receptacles in residential and light commercial electrical, HVAC, and appliance wiring applications.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by licensed electricians or qualified HVAC technicians following applicable NEC requirements. De-energize all circuits completely before terminating or replacing disconnect terminals. Use a calibrated ratcheting crimping tool rated for vinyl-insulated terminals to ensure a consistent, gas-tight crimp — avoid using uncalibrated or slip-joint pliers as substitutes. Inspect the completed crimp and insulation sleeve for damage before re-energizing the circuit.
