Crimp socket for 12-14 AWG power circuits
The TE 213847-2 is a crimp socket contact in the Multimate.125 Powerband series, designed for power interconnect applications. It accepts 12-14 AWG wire — the gauge range that covers moderate-current power feeds in industrial control panels, battery harnesses, and distribution blocks.
Wire sizing and termination
Crimp termination for 12-14 AWG stranded wire — the terminal barrel is sized to compress around the conductor and insulation simultaneously. The copper alloy base material gives a stable crimp force window across the full wire range. Gold plating on the contact surface, not the crimp barrel, so the termination resistance is set by the crimp quality, not the plating.
