WAGO 2273-208 PUSH WIRE Splicing Connector 8-Pole 0.5-2.5mm² 24A

The WAGO 2273-208 is an 8-conductor PUSH WIRE® splicing connector from the 2273 Series, designed for fast, tool-free connections of solid conductors in surface-mounted and flush-mounted junction boxes in any building, regardless of installation complexity. Rated at 450 V and 24 A per IEC/EN 60998, it unites all 8 clamping units under a single shared potential. The transparent polycarbonate housing and light gray cover allow immediate visual confirmation of conductor seating.

Sold as a pack of 50 pieces.

Features and benefits:

• PUSH WIRE® connection requires no tools - conductor stiffness overcomes the clamping spring, providing the fastest method for clamping conductors
• 11 mm strip length and side-entry wiring simplify termination in confined junction boxes
• Transparent housing enables visual verification of fully inserted conductors
• Accepts both copper and solid aluminum conductors; aluminum contact paste automatically destroys oxide film and prevents corrosion at the clamping point
• Certified to UL 486C and EN 60998 with cULus and VDE approvals

Applications:

• Splicing solid conductors in surface-mounted junction boxes
• Splicing solid conductors in flush-mounted junction boxes
• High-load residential and commercial building wiring up to 24 A / 450 V
• Connecting solid aluminum conductors in building installations where WAGO Aluminum Contact Paste 249-130 is applied
