Each connector accommodates two wire entries and accepts wire gauges from 22 to 14 AWG, making it suitable for a wide range of signal and power wiring tasks. The blue color coding identifies the compatible wire range at a glance. The IDC termination method pierces the wire insulation on contact, eliminating the need to strip wire ends before making a connection. This package contains 25 connectors. Electricians and low-voltage installers commonly use these splice connectors when adding branch connections to existing wire runs without cutting the main conductor.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThese connectors are used in residential and light commercial wiring where quick, reliable splices are needed on thermostat wire, doorbell wire, security system wiring, and similar low-voltage conductors in the 22 to 14 AWG range. The pigtail configuration allows a branch wire to be connected directly to a through-wire, which is common in HVAC control wiring, low-voltage lighting, and alarm system installations. The 25-piece pack suits service technicians and electricians who make multiple splice connections per job.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eIDC termination method — no wire stripping required before installation\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eAccepts 22 to 14 AWG wire for flexible application across common low-voltage conductor sizes\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTwo wire entries support a pigtail branch connection to a through-wire\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBlue color coding indicates compatible wire gauge range at a glance\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eUL and CSA Listed, RoHS compliant\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e25 connectors per package for multi-connection jobs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use with 22 to 14 AWG insulated copper wire in low-voltage splicing applications where an IDC pigtail connection is required.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation is typically performed by licensed electricians or low-voltage technicians. De-energize the circuit before making any splice connection. The IDC design requires firm, even pressure — typically applied with lineman pliers or a dedicated IDC tool — to fully seat the connector and pierce the wire insulation. Follow applicable NEC guidelines for splice protection and enclosure requirements when installing in finished spaces.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTerminal Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Pigtail\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTermination Method\u003c\/strong\u003e: IDC (Insulation Displacement Contact)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCompatible Wire Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 22 to 14 AWG\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Wire Entries\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eColor\u003c\/strong\u003e: Blue\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStandards Met\u003c\/strong\u003e: UL Listed, CSA Listed, RoHS Compliant\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 25\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.01 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: VALUE COLLECTION\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: BD-18545\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"VALUE COLLECTION","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51694372978994,"sku":"BD-18545","price":78.05,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/7ad3f0e5eee7ff13e2484aa2c7799e3f.jpg?v=1788323772","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/value-collection-bd-18545-idc-pigtail-splice-connector-25pk","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
