Value Collection LSNYDS1-5 Locking Fork Terminal

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION LSNYDS1-5 is a red, partially insulated locking fork terminal designed for crimp-style electrical connections in light commercial and residential wiring applications. Built with a copper contact and nylon insulation sleeve, this terminal accepts wire sizes from 0.50 to 1.50 square millimeters and is rated for up to 600 volts. The locking fork design prevents accidental disconnection from the stud, making it a reliable choice for control panels, junction boxes, and equipment terminations where vibration or movement could loosen a standard spade terminal. Licensed electricians and qualified service technicians are the typical installers.

This terminal is suited for use with number 10 stud hardware, which is common in HVAC control boards, electrical panels, and motor terminal blocks. The fork width of 8.10 millimeters and overall length of 22.00 millimeters fit standard number 10 screw terminals found across residential and light commercial electrical equipment. The red color coding follows conventional wire gauge identification for small-gauge conductors in the 0.50 to 1.50 square millimeter range. It is sold individually, with a minimum order quantity of 100 pieces.

• Rated for 600 volts with nylon partial insulation
• Copper contact provides reliable conductivity and crimp retention
• Accepts wire sizes from 0.50 to 1.50 square millimeters
• Red color coding for quick gauge identification in the field
• UL Listed and cUL Listed; RoHS Compliant

Compatibility

Designed for use with number 10 stud size hardware across residential and light commercial electrical termination points, including control boards, terminal strips, and motor connection blocks that accept standard fork-style crimp terminals.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed electrician or qualified technician in accordance with applicable NEC requirements. De-energize the circuit completely before making or breaking any terminal connections. Use a calibrated ratcheting crimp tool sized for the wire gauge being terminated to ensure a gas-tight, pull-resistant crimp. Do not over-crimp or use pliers as a substitute for a proper crimping tool, as this can damage the nylon insulation sleeve and compromise the connection.
