Why Choose the Partex BB9/RA Blue Right-Angled Blade Terminal?
The Partex BB9/RA is a high-quality blue pre-insulated right-angled blade crimp terminal designed to provide secure and reliable electrical connections for stranded copper conductors. Featuring a 9 mm blade length, 2.8 mm blade width and a right-angled configuration, this terminal is suitable for electrical control panels, industrial wiring and equipment connections where a compact termination arrangement is required.
Manufactured as part of the Partex insulated crimp terminal range, the BB9/RA combines a conductive copper terminal with durable blue PVC insulation. The insulation supports reliable crimping and helps protect the completed termination against accidental contact with the conductive barrel. Its right-angled blade design provides a practical connection option where wiring direction, terminal access or installation space makes a straight blade terminal less convenient.
Designed for 1.5–2.5 mm² copper conductors (16–14 AWG), the Partex BB9/RA is supplied in a convenient pack of 100 terminals. The colour-coded insulation enables straightforward conductor size identification, making these terminals particularly useful for electrical installers, control panel manufacturers and industrial maintenance engineers.

Reliable Right-Angled Crimp Connections for Electrical Wiring
Pre-insulated blade terminals such as the Partex BB9/RA provide a convenient method of terminating stranded copper conductors for connection to compatible electrical equipment. During installation, the stripped conductor is inserted into the terminal barrel and compressed using a suitable crimping tool. A correctly formed crimp creates a secure mechanical connection and an effective electrical contact without requiring solder.
The right-angled blade configuration allows the terminal to be used where the cable needs to approach or leave the connection at an angle. This can help improve cable routing in compact electrical assemblies, terminal compartments and industrial control panels. The blue PVC insulation identifies the terminal as suitable for 1.5–2.5 mm² conductors, while the 9 mm blade provides a defined contact length for compatible connections. Correct conductor preparation, crimp tooling and mating terminal compatibility are essential for reliable installation.
Typical Applications
- Industrial electrical control panels and wiring assemblies.
- Electrical equipment connections requiring right-angled blade terminals.
- Control cabinet wiring and cable termination.
- Industrial machinery and automation equipment.
- Electrical maintenance, servicing and repair work.
- Low-voltage electrical distribution and auxiliary wiring.
- Equipment manufacturing and electrical assembly production.
- Stranded copper conductor termination in restricted wiring spaces.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the Partex BB9/RA used for?
The Partex BB9/RA is a blue insulated right-angled blade crimp terminal used to terminate stranded copper conductors and provide connections to compatible electrical terminals in control panels, industrial equipment and wiring assemblies.
What wire sizes are suitable for the Partex BB9/RA?
The terminal is designed for 1.5–2.5 mm² stranded copper conductors, equivalent to approximately 16–14 AWG.
What are the blade dimensions of the Partex BB9/RA?
The BB9/RA features a 9 mm blade length and 2.8 mm blade width. The mating electrical connection should be compatible with the blade dimensions and terminal configuration.
What does the blue insulation indicate?
The blue PVC insulation identifies the terminal as suitable for conductors with a cross-sectional area of 1.5–2.5 mm², following the common colour-coding convention for pre-insulated crimp terminals.
What is the difference between the Partex BB9 and BB9/RA?
The Partex BB9 is a straight insulated blade terminal, while the BB9/RA features a right-angled blade configuration. Both are blue insulated terminals for 1.5–2.5 mm² conductors, but the BB9/RA is designed for applications where an angled connection is preferred.
How many terminals are supplied in one pack?
The Partex BB9/RA is supplied in a pack of 100 pieces, making it suitable for electrical installation, panel manufacturing and routine maintenance applications.
What tool is required to install the Partex BB9/RA?
A suitable crimping tool for blue pre-insulated terminals should be used. The tool must support the 1.5–2.5 mm² conductor range and produce a secure crimp without damaging the insulation or terminal.
Is the Partex BB9/RA suitable for stranded copper wire?
Yes. The BB9/RA is designed for terminating stranded copper conductors within the specified 1.5–2.5 mm² cross-sectional range.
Why choose a right-angled blade terminal?
A right-angled blade terminal can simplify cable routing and connection access where a straight terminal would be less convenient. It is particularly useful in compact electrical assemblies and control panels where wiring direction and available space are important.
