Blue polypropylene insulation-displacement connector, single port, 14 AWG max

POWER FIRST

POWER FIRST 22EW62 insulation-displacement wire connector 14 AWG 1 port

SKU CH-7VQM-V6K96

Insulation-displacement connector joins 14 AWG to 18 AWG wires at up to 600 V

  • Product typeElectrical Connectors
  • Insulation-displacement design makes fast, tool-free splices
  • Rated for 14 AWG maximum wire size
  • Blue polypropylene housing resists heat to 221 °F
  • Single-port run/tap connector handles up to 600 V
  • Maximum insulation diameter 0.138 mm for secure fit

Wire connector for 14 AWG circuits

This POWER FIRST 22EW62 insulation-displacement connector accepts a single 14 AWG run wire and a single 14 AWG tap wire. It is suited for installers who need a quick, splice-free joint on solid or stranded conductors up to 600 V. The blue polypropylene body identifies the connector at a glance.

Fits tight junction boxes without tools

The connector uses insulation-displacement teeth that pierce the wire jacket, so no stripping or crimping tools are required. It occupies minimal space inside standard electrical boxes and frees the installer from carrying a stripper or crimper for this joint. Rated for a maximum insulation diameter of .138 mm on the run side.

Holds contact pressure at 221 °F

The polypropylene housing and metal teeth maintain clamping force up to the listed maximum operating temperature of 221 Degrees F. This suits sustained loads in enclosed automotive or industrial compartments where heat builds over time. Not intended for conductors smaller than 18 AWG or for multi-wire taps beyond the single-port design.

Questions about this item

What is the maximum continuous temperature the 22EW62 connector can withstand before the insulation material degrades?

The polypropylene insulation is rated for a maximum operating temperature of 221 degrees Fahrenheit.

How much heat does the connector generate when carrying its rated 600 V load continuously?

As a passive wire connector, it generates no heat of its own; temperature rise depends on the current flowing through the 14 AWG conductors.

Which wire gauges must I have on hand to use this single-port run-tap connector?

You need solid or stranded copper wire between 18 AWG and 14 AWG for both the run and tap conductors.
