DINnectors Frequently Asked Questions
| Question | Are the BM series insulated wire ferrules UL listed? |
| Answer | The issue of UL recognition for ferrules typically comes from UL508A companies that inquire whether our ferrules are UL certified or UL recognized. UL has not to our knowledge issued a set of standards related to regulation of wire ferrules for UL508A. Once a stranded wire is inserted into the ferrule and crimped it makes the ferrule an integral part of the wire. It is no different than tinning the wire end with solder. As long as the diameter of the ferrule with the wire inside does not exceed the capacity for the connector it is placed in, the device should be able to pass UL approval. |
