Overview

The TE Connectivity 2316663-3 Tab Contact (SKU: 2316663-3) is a precision-engineered electrical connector designed for reliable power and signal transmission in industrial, commercial, and high-voltage applications. This discrete wire contact features a gold-plated finish for superior conductivity and corrosion resistance, ensuring long-term signal integrity in harsh environments. Rated for 250 VAC / 600 VAC and 250 VDC / 600 VDC, it supports a wide range of electrical systems, from control panels to power distribution units. The contact utilizes a spring contact retention mechanism to secure discrete wires (28–22 AWG) via crimping, providing a durable and vibration-resistant connection. Constructed from a durable copper alloy, this tab contact delivers consistent performance in power and signal applications, meeting stringent industry standards for quality and reliability. Manufactured in the US, the 2316663-3 is ideal for applications requiring high-voltage compatibility and long-term durability. Key applications include industrial machinery, automation systems, power supplies, and telecommunications equipment where reliable electrical connectivity is critical. The gold plating ensures minimal contact resistance, reducing signal loss and improving system efficiency. Compatible with standard crimp tools, this contact simplifies installation and maintenance in both new and retrofit projects.
