WAGO 224-114 2-Conductor Lighting Connector 24 A 2.5 mm² Black 100-Pack

The WAGO 224-114 is a 2-conductor lighting connector from the 224 Series, designed for connecting lights quickly and safely. It combines PUSH WIRE technology on the installation side with CAGE CLAMP technology on the lighting side, enabling connections between solid and fine-stranded conductors without ferrule preparation. Rated at 400 V and 24 A, it is suitable for high-load lighting applications.

Technical specifications:

Features and benefits:

• PUSH WIRE connection on the installation side is the fastest clamping method - it uses the conductor's own stiffness to overcome the spring's contact force, requiring no tools.
• CAGE CLAMP on the lighting side accepts all conductor types, including fine-stranded, without crimping ferrules - maintenance-free once terminated.
• Push-button actuation on the lighting side allows conductors to be inserted and removed without tools; separate test ports allow live circuit testing without disconnection.
• Accepts copper and aluminum conductors; aluminum use requires WAGO Aluminum Contact Paste 249-130 and current derating to 16 A at 2.5 mm².
• Approved to EN 60998 by CSA, UL, and VDE; supplied with EU and UK Declarations of Conformity.

Applications:

• Connecting lighting fixtures in residential and commercial electrical installations.
• Splicing solid installation-side conductors to fine-stranded lighting-side leads at the fixture.
• High-load lighting circuits requiring conductor connections rated up to 24 A / 400 V.
• In-ceiling or junction-box terminations where side-entry wiring orientation is required.
