Product Information

Full details

This WAGO 4-way pushbutton PCB terminal block is designed for electrical engineers and DIY enthusiasts seeking efficient and reliable PCB connections. Its key benefit is simplified wiring with push-in termination for solid conductors and easy manipulation of stranded conductors via its push-buttons. A minor caveat is that it is optimized for solid conductors for initial insertion, while fine-stranded conductors require button activation for termination and removal.

Extended Product Information

FAQs

What is the maximum current rating for this terminal block?

This terminal block is rated for a maximum of 17.5A.

Can I use stranded wire with this terminal block?

Yes, fine-stranded conductors can be terminated and removed using the integrated push-buttons. Solid conductors can be push-in terminated.

What is the pitch of this terminal block?

The pitch of this terminal block is 5mm.

What does the 45° conductor entry angle provide?

The 45° angle allows for easier and more space-efficient wiring, particularly in compact applications where routing space is limited.

What type of connection technology does this terminal block use?

It uses WAGO's CAGE CLAMP® connection technology.

What are the overall dimensions of the terminal block?

The terminal block measures 20.5mm in height, 13mm in depth, and 21.5mm in width.

Troubleshooting

Conductor not making contact

Ensure the conductor is stripped to the correct length and fully inserted. For fine-stranded conductors, verify the push-button mechanism is engaged.

Conductor is loose

Check if the correct conductor type (solid vs. fine-stranded) is being used for the connection method. Ensure the conductor is fully seated and the terminal lock is engaged.

Difficulty inserting conductor

For solid conductors, ensure the wire is straight and free of deformation. For fine-stranded conductors, ensure the push-button is fully depressed before insertion.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Tool-free termination for solid conductors simplifies assembly.
  • Push-buttons offer convenient termination and removal for fine-stranded wires.
  • 45° conductor entry angle improves accessibility and wiring density.
  • Robust CAGE CLAMP® connection ensures reliable electrical contact.
  • Compact size saves valuable space on printed circuit boards.

Cons

  • Requires button press for fine-stranded conductor termination and removal.
  • Not suitable for aluminum conductors.
  • Limited to 17.5A current rating, which may not be sufficient for high-power applications.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Prepare Wires: For solid conductors, strip the insulation to the appropriate length as specified by the manufacturer (typically around 8-10mm). For fine-stranded conductors, strip the insulation as well.
  2. Connect Solid Conductors: Simply push the stripped end of a solid conductor into the designated terminal entry point until it is securely seated.
  3. Connect Fine-Stranded Conductors: Insert a screwdriver or a suitable tool into the push-button and hold it. Insert the stripped end of the fine-stranded conductor into the terminal entry. Release the push-button to secure the connection.
  4. Remove Conductors: For solid conductors, a firm pull may be sufficient. For fine-stranded conductors, push the button with a tool to release the conductor.

Compatibility:

  • Compatible with solid conductors of appropriate gauge (refer to WAGO datasheets for specific ranges).
  • Compatible with fine-stranded conductors requiring the use of the push-button mechanism.
  • Designed for mounting on PCBs with a 5mm pitch.

Care:

  • Keep the terminal block clean and free from dust and debris. Use a dry, lint-free cloth for cleaning.
  • Avoid exposure to excessive moisture or corrosive substances.
  • Periodically inspect connections to ensure they remain secure, especially in vibration-prone environments.
