Overview

The ABB RB3F Polycarbonate Insulated Fork Terminal (SKU: RB3F) is a precision-engineered electrical connection solution designed for 1.5-2.5mm² rigid solid/stranded wires. Featuring durable polycarbonate insulation, this terminal ensures reliable performance in industrial control panels, electrical distribution boards, and automation systems. The M3 bolt hole provides secure fastening with a recommended tightening torque of 1.2 Nm (11 lb-in), preventing loosening under vibration. Compatible with both rigid and flexible conductors (with or without ferrules), the RB3F supports AWG 18-14 and delivers a rated current of 24A at 500V AC/DC per IEC 60947-7-1. Its compact design (6mm width) allows installation in tight spaces, while the IP20 degree of protection ensures safety in indoor environments. Delivered with screws in open position, unused terminals must be tightened to maintain system integrity. Ideal for panel wiring, motor controls, and machine building, the RB3F combines ABB’s reliability with UL/CSA certification for global compliance.
