Orange thermoplastic twist-on wire connector with ribbed conical body

POWER FIRST

POWER FIRST Twist-On Wire Connector 14 AWG Max Orange Thermoplastic

SKU CH-YCMT-V20MZ

Twist-on wire connector joins up to five copper conductors from 20 to 14 AWG, rated 600 V and 221 °F with UL 94 V-2 flammability rating

  • TypeElectrical Connectors
  • Connects up to five conductors for flexible wiring
  • Handles 18–16 AWG copper wires for common circuits
  • Rated 600 V and 221 °F for safe operation
  • UL 94 V-2 flame rating resists fire spread
  • CSA certified and UL listed for code compliance

Application and wire range

These twist-on wire connectors are designed for copper conductors and accept combinations from one 18 AWG with one 20 AWG up to four 16 AWG with one 20 AWG. They are rated for a maximum of 600 volts and a maximum operating temperature of 221 degrees Fahrenheit. The orange thermoplastic shell provides insulation and the connectors are UL listed and CSA certified.

Suitability and limits

Electricians and maintenance technicians joining small-gauge copper wires in residential or light commercial circuits will find these connectors appropriate. Installers needing to splice larger conductors or more than five wires per connector must select a different product. Projects requiring a higher flammability rating than UL 94 V-2 should also look elsewhere.

Deciding specification

The maximum wire combination of four 16 AWG with one 20 AWG defines the capacity limit for this connector. Exceeding this combination or the five-conductor maximum will result in an improper connection. Verify your wire gauges and counts against these limits before purchasing.

Questions about this item

How do I verify the connector is seated correctly after twisting it onto the wires?

After twisting the orange connector onto the stripped copper wires, tug each conductor gently; a firm hold with no exposed copper means the steel-zinc contacts have gripped the 18 AWG to 16 AWG combination up to the 5-conductor limit.

What comes in the package and what must I supply myself?

The package contains only the orange thermoplastic twist-on connectors; you must provide solid or stranded copper wire in 18–16 AWG sizes and a stripping tool, while the compatible installation tool model No. 3 is optional.

Which wire-gauge combination should I select for a 4-wire splice?

Choose this 14 AWG max orange connector when joining up to four 16 AWG wires with one 20 AWG, the maximum combination listed for the 600 V, 221 °F rated body.
