|---|
| Terminal type | Female disconnect terminal | Receptacle terminal | Receptacle terminal | Apparatus terminal | Insulated wire receptacle | Insulated wire receptacle | Determines compatibility with the mating connector part |
| Contact width | 4.8 mm | 6.3 mm | 6.3 mm | Not applicable (2.5 mm²) | 6.3 mm | 6.3 mm | A 6.3 mm width is standard for many power circuits, whereas 4.8 mm fits more compact installation spaces |
| Plating | Tinned | Tinned | Tinned | Tinned | Unplated | Tinned | Tin plating provides corrosion resistance and optimal electrical conductivity |
| Insulation | Uninsulated | Uninsulated | Uninsulated | Uninsulated | Insulated | Insulated | Insulated versions enhance installation safety and prevent accidental short circuits |
◎ Evaluation of use cases and suitability for different wiring needs and application scenarios.
| Use case | Recommended product | Why |
|---|
| Wiring in tight spaces requiring 4.8 mm connections | Erko MS_4,8-2SN/100 | Features a reduced 4.8 mm contact width perfectly matched to compact mating terminals. |
| Standard automotive and power circuits using 6.3 mm connections | Erko TS_6,3-1SN/100 | Provides a secure standard 6.3 mm contact with enhanced corrosion resistance. |
| Professional wiring harness assembly in larger quantities | Erko TS_6,3-6SN/100 | Supplied in a convenient 100-pack for efficient serial electrical installation work. |
| Industrial and domestic apparatus wiring | Erko KNE 4-2,5/100 | Designed specifically for secure 2.5 mm² wire termination in electrical equipment. |
