Features and benefits:

• PUSH WIRE technology uses the stiffness of the conductor to overcome the clamping spring's contact force, allowing faster and easier conductor clamping without tools.
• Compact MICRO footprint (18.4 x 6.8 x 10 mm) with side-entry wiring is sized for junction box use in confined spaces.
• Single-potential, 8-conductor layout splices up to eight wires on one potential without additional components.
• Broad international approval coverage including UL, CSA, KEMA/KEUR, ABS, and Lloyd's Register for building, industrial, and marine applications.
• RoHS compliant with no exemptions, with both EU and UK Declarations of Conformity.

Applications:

• Splicing solid conductors in junction boxes for building electrical installations.
• Doorbell wiring and intercom system wiring in low-voltage building circuits.
• Low-voltage distribution wiring in residential and commercial buildings.
• Marine and specialist industrial installations requiring ABS or Lloyd's Register certification.
