Product Selection Process
1. Determine the wire com-
bination (number of wires
and size) of the wire bun-
dle you wish to terminate.
2. Use Table C to select the
correct terminal for AWG
wire combination.*
Example: For connecting
a bundle with one 12
AWG wire (1 #12) and
two 18 AWG wires (+ 2
#18) to a terminal, you
need an SGRT-4-XX
terminal.
3. Determine the correct
stud size.
Applications
Used for terminating
multiple wires to terminals.
4. Select the correct part
number from Table A for
that stud size in the termi-
nal series and size you
selected in Step 2.
Example: If the stud size
is 1/4, select part number
SGRT-4-06.
5. Verify that the wire bundle
(with wire insulation) does
not exceed the maximum
diameter allowed for the
part you selected. Simply
check the bundle’s
diameter against the
maximum diameter that
Table A lists for that part.

6. Verify that the total
amperage to be applied
does not exceed the
maximum amp rating for
the part as specified in
Table A.
*If the wire combination is
not listed in Table B, use
the CMA (mm
2
) method of
determining wire bundle
size (see “CMA/mm
2
Calculation” on page 8-36).
Using Table B, select the
smallest size part that will fit
your total wire CMA (mm
2
)
value.

Calculation
To calculate the total circular
mil or mm
2
area of the wire
bundle to be terminated,
follow these steps:
1. Choose either CMA or
mm
2
as your unit of
measure for selection
purposes and continue to
use it for all your selec-
tion criteria. (Both meas-
ures provide the same
results.)
2. In the workspace below,
list the CMA or mm
2
for
each conductor in the
bundle. (Table B provides
the CMA of typical con-
ductors.)

SGRT-2-XX if bundle OD is less than
5.0 mm (0.195 in).
Bundle diameter must not
exceed 5.0 mm [0.195 in] for
this example
