Terminals - Wire Splice Connectors 53548-2 Application Field and Working Principle

Wire splice connectors come in various shapes and sizes. The 53548-2 terminal is a type of connector used for joining two insulated conductors within a single cable. This type of connector is ideal for applications where a secure connection, low losses, and the ability to accommodate large wire sizes are needed.

The 53548-2 Terminal Construction

The 53548-2 terminal is a double splice connector composed of two halves. The exterior is typically made of plastic or a metal alloy, and the interior of both halves consists of an insulation displacement connection (IDC) that is inserted into a PCB board. The interior is comprised of two fingers that slide between the strands of an insulated cable and then press the strands against the terminal. The terminal is then secured with a latch or a securing screw and washer.

Applications

The 53548-2 terminal can be employed in several applications, including wire-to-wire (WTW) connections, terminating a wire network, and attaching a conductor to a terminal block or heat shrink. Because it can be used to join both solid and stranded wires with insulation thickness up to 2.5mm, it is possible to use it for many everyday applications, such as in automotive and electrical harnessing.

Working Principle

The 53548-2 terminal operates by means of an IDC that pierces through the insulation of two separate wires in one go. The IDC then presses the strands between two fingers and connects them to the PCB board. If a metal strap is used for a latch, the wires are held in place between the fingers and are firmly connected to the board. If a screw and washer is used, the screw compresses the fingers together and securely holds the connection in place.

Benefits of the 53548-2 Terminal

The 53548-2 provides several benefits to its users. It is suited for high-current applications up to 35A and can accommodate cable sizes up to 4mm². It is also highly reliable and fast to install, allowing for a quick and effortless connection. To protect against vibration, the connector can incorporate a locking feature for extra stability. Its construction also ensures that the wires are firmly locked in place for reliable and secure connections, allowing them to withstand the rigors of everyday usage.

Conclusion

The 53548-2 terminal is an excellent choice for any wire splicing application. Its construction allows for secure and reliable connections, while its ability to accommodate both solid and stranded wires and its resistance to vibration make it suitable for a variety of applications. Its quick and easy installation further enhances its value, making it a great option for any job.
