In the past, electrical connections were hard-wired and soldered, and often left untouched for years. Today, industrial connectors are expected to be connected, disconnected, and then reconnected thousands of times while maintaining a secure and reliable electrical connection. LAPP’s EPIC® connector range is designed for this purpose, providing reliable power, signal, and data connections across a wide range of industrial applications.

Now available online and in a re-usable screw-top jar, ECS offer WAGO 221 Series Wire Splicing Connectors in both 4mm and 6mm with 2, 3 and 5 wire connectors. Just pull the lever up, insert a conductor and push the lever back down – done! The 221 Series Splicing Connector connects solid, stranded and fine-stranded conductors easily, quickly and safely. Save time for installers and device manufacturers. Quickly install devices with higher power consumption. Safely install long cable runs with larger conductor cross sections.

The WAGO 221 Series Splicing Connector promises top contact quality – and delivers. Even over decades and under more demanding environmental conditions, the contact between the connection point and conductor remains stable. This is demonstrated by the salt spray test, which simulates the aging of the WAGO splicing connector with lever in more intense atmospheric conditions.

Better than the standard – that is true of the conductor retention force of the compact WAGO 221 Series Splicing Connector. The video shows the conductor pull-out test in fast motion. This is a standardized test used to check the conductor retention force of splicing connectors. The 221 Splicing Connector withstands at least twice the tension required by the standard.

The WAGO 221 Series Splicing Connector doesn’t get rattled, even when shaken vigorously. When screw-type terminal blocks give up, the 221 is only just getting started. The contact quality of the WAGO 221 Series Splicing Connector remains even with 2000 hertz vibration.

Now available online from our EXPRESS store in both 4mm2 and 4/6mm2 assorted boxes, the all new WAGO Splicing Connector sets have you covered. These assorted kits are the perfect way to get a good selection of WAGO 221 quick connect terminals packed in a simple stackable tackle-box for easy management.
