Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the PV10-6R-E is based on electrical and mechanical parameter equivalence within the Panduit Pan-Term® series. The substitute part PV10-6R-D maintains identical specifications across all critical parameters that determine functional compatibility:

Critical Equivalence Parameters:

• Terminal Type: Circular
• Stud/Tab Size: #6
• Wire Gauge Range: 10-12 AWG
• Termination Method: Crimp
• Contact Material: Copper
• Contact Finish: Tin
• Insulation Material: Vinyl
• Physical Dimensions: Thickness, length, width, and insulation diameter
• Construction Features: Brazed seam

The primary distinction between these parts is product status and packaging configuration, not electrical or mechanical performance.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The PV10-6R-D serves as the direct active equivalent for the obsolete PV10-6R-E. Both parts are ROHS3 compliant and share identical electrical and mechanical specifications. Selection of PV10-6R-D is appropriate for new designs and replacement applications requiring the PV10-6R-E specification.

The PV10-6R-D is currently in active production status with 7,460 units in stock, ensuring supply continuity. The PV10-6R-E, while currently holding 937 units in inventory, carries obsolete status and should not be specified for new applications.

Both parts maintain equivalent performance characteristics for ring terminal connector applications within the 10-12 AWG wire gauge range with #6 stud mounting configurations.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Are PV10-6R-E and PV10-6R-D electrically equivalent?
