Does Anyone Have a Project that Could Use Wago's Pluggable Tools-Free Connectors?

rscasny

imageI was speaking with WAGO who would like to some element14 members to use some of its pluggable connectors.

We first discussed a roadtest. In general, we don't roadtest connectors unless they are part of a larger eval kit. The timing for a design challenge for the remainder of this year isn't quite right as far as scheduling goes.

So, we thought we would ask if any of you would need their products for a project you are doing? If so, we would get some for you.

Let me tell you about the Wago pluggable connectors:

WAGO's pluggable connection system provides a 'tools free' solution for your wiring applications. The system includes seven product lines (2.5–7.62 mm/0.98–0.3 inch pin spacing) and terminates conductors ranging from 0.08 to 10 mm2 (28–8 AWG), offering a wide range of application possibilities.

imageFeatures:

  • Versatile pluggable connection system for continuous system wiring
  • Easy cable pre-assembly and on-unit wiring via vertical and horizontal actuation for the CAGE CLAMP® variants
  • Push-in CAGE CLAMP® termination of both solid and ferruled conductors
  • 100% protection against mismating that's easy to implement
  • Compact and versatile designs
  • Easy-to-customize coding options
  • Intuitive and tool-free lever actuation
  • Universal connection for all conductor types
  • Push-in termination of solid and ferruled conductors
  • Test slot 90° to conductor entry
  • 100% protected against mismating
  • Coding option available
  • Rapid in-the-field connections

    These look very nice. I'm working on a project where I'll need these kind of connectors at some point (probably next year). The low end screw-based terminal blocks have many inconveniences compared to…

    I'd love to give these connectors a try and see how tool free they really are :-).  I ve liked the push in style, frequently they need pushed hard to open enough to get the stripped  wires in.

    These have lever action. Easier on the fingers than the pushers.

    I've used them on solid copper AC residential wiring. The worked fine for that. The longevity still needs to be seen though.
