Why Choose the Partex PXP16 Copper Flat Pin Connector?
The Partex PXP16 is a copper flat pin connector designed for terminating 16 mm² electrical conductors in compatible electrical terminal connections. Supplied in a convenient pack of 100 connectors, it provides a practical cable termination solution for electrical contractors, control panel manufacturers, equipment builders and industrial maintenance professionals.
As part of the Partex PXP copper flat pin connector range, the PXP16 combines a conductor termination section with a flat pin contact. The conductor is secured to the connector using appropriately selected crimping equipment, while the flat pin is designed for insertion into a compatible receiving terminal. This arrangement provides an alternative to ring and fork terminals where equipment requires a flat pin connection.
With its 16 mm² nominal conductor size, copper construction and 100-piece pack quantity, the PXP16 is suitable for repetitive electrical wiring, cable preparation and equipment assembly tasks. Correct conductor preparation, crimping and receiving terminal compatibility are essential for achieving a secure electrical connection.

Secure Flat Pin Connections for Electrical Wiring and Equipment
The Partex PXP16 copper flat pin connector provides a means of terminating a compatible 16 mm² electrical conductor for connection to equipment with a suitable flat pin terminal interface. During installation, the conductor is stripped to the appropriate length, inserted into the connector's termination section and secured using compatible crimping equipment. A correctly formed crimp establishes the electrical and mechanical connection between the conductor and connector.
The flat pin contact is then inserted into the compatible receiving terminal and secured according to the equipment manufacturer's instructions. Unlike a ring terminal, which is fitted over a stud or bolt, the flat pin connector is intended for terminal arrangements designed to accept a flat contact. Installers should verify conductor compatibility, pin dimensions, receiving terminal suitability and crimping requirements before installation.
