WAGO 2273-203 PUSH WIRE Splicing Connector 3-Pole 0.5-2.5mm² 24A

The WAGO 2273-203 is a 3-conductor PUSH WIRE® splicing connector from the 2273 Series, designed to simplify electrical installations in surface-mounted and flush-mounted junction boxes. It accepts solid conductors from 0.5 mm² to 2.5 mm² and delivers a rated current of 24 A at a rated voltage of 450 V per IEC/EN 60998. The transparent polycarbonate housing with orange cover allows visual confirmation of correct conductor insertion.

Sold as a pack of 100 pieces.
