Value Collection 23079 Wire Disconnect 16-14 Awg Crimp

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 23079 is a crimp-style wire disconnect terminal designed for fast, reliable electrical connections in low-voltage wiring applications. The terminal accepts 16 to 14 AWG wire and features a 0.156 inch (5/32 inch) tab width, a common standard in residential and light commercial electrical and HVAC control wiring. Installation requires no soldering — a proper ratcheting crimp tool seats the terminal onto stripped wire conductors in seconds. Electricians, HVAC technicians, and panel wiring professionals use this type of disconnect terminal when building or servicing wiring harnesses, control boards, and relay connections.

This disconnect terminal fits standard 0.156 inch tab connectors found throughout HVAC control circuits, appliance wiring, and general electrical panel or enclosure wiring. It is appropriate for use in both residential and light commercial installations where a removable, crimp-secured connection is required. The 16-14 AWG wire range covers the most common control-circuit and low-amperage power conductor sizes used in these applications.

Compatibility

Designed as a standard-fitment crimp wire disconnect for 0.156 inch tab receptacles commonly used in HVAC control circuits, appliance wiring harnesses, and general low-voltage electrical enclosure applications.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed electrician or qualified HVAC technician in accordance with applicable NEC requirements. De-energize the circuit completely before terminating or removing any wire disconnect. Use a calibrated ratcheting crimp tool rated for the terminal type to ensure a gas-tight, mechanically sound crimp — pliers or non-ratcheting tools will not produce a reliable connection. Inspect the seated terminal for proper conductor engagement before restoring power.
