Overview

The ABB RA29 Polycarbonate Insulated Female Disconnect (SKU: RA29) is a high-reliability electrical termination solution designed for industrial and commercial applications requiring secure, insulated connections. This fully insulated disconnect features a durable polycarbonate housing that meets UL 94 HB flammability standards and supports wire ranges from 0.5 to 1.5 square millimeters (22-18 AWG). The 2.8mm x 0.8mm tab size ensures compatibility with standard male disconnects, enabling tool-free insertion and removal for reduced installation time and labor costs. Engineered for consistent performance, the RA29 includes an internal wire stop to guarantee proper wire insertion depth, eliminating guesswork and ensuring high-quality crimps. The funnel-entry design simplifies wire insertion, while the continuously molded barrel provides reliable tensile strength and electrical contact. With a maximum insulation temperature of 221°F (105°C) and UL/CSA certification up to 600V per UL 310, this disconnect is ideal for panel builders, electricians, and maintenance professionals working in demanding environments. Compatible with industry-standard crimp tools such as the CT-1525, CT-2300/ST, CT-2500/L, and UP14ZLW, the RA29 integrates seamlessly into existing workflows. Its compact design and robust construction make it suitable for use in control panels, machinery wiring, HVAC systems, and renewable energy installations where space constraints and electrical safety are critical. The red color-coded housing further enhances visual identification in complex wiring systems.
