Wago 243-508 MICRO PUSH WIRE Connector 8-Pole 0.8mm Junction Box Pack of 50

The WAGO 243-508 is a MICRO PUSH WIRE connector for junction boxes from the 243 Series, designed for solid copper conductors of 0.6 to 0.8 mm diameter (22 to 20 AWG). Its 8 clamping units share a single potential and the connector is rated at 100 V and 6 A per EN 60664, suited for low-voltage electrical installations in buildings. Typical applications include doorbell and intercom system wiring, as specified in the WAGO datasheet.

Sold as a pack of 50 pieces.

Features and benefits:

• PUSH WIRE tool-free termination uses conductor stiffness to overcome the clamping spring contact force, allowing faster and easier solid conductor insertion without a tool
• 8-conductor single-potential configuration distributes one circuit to up to 8 branch conductors within a single compact connector body
• Side-entry wiring keeps the connector profile low for installations in space-constrained junction boxes
• Multiple international certifications covering general electrical use (UL, CSA, KEMA/KEUR) and marine applications (ABS, Lloyd's Register)
• RoHS compliant and manufactured in Germany

Applications:

• Doorbell wiring in residential and commercial buildings
• Intercom system installations
• Low-voltage building electrical installations rated up to 100 V / 6 A
• Splicing solid copper conductors inside junction boxes
