Are quick connectors effective?
The electrical quick connector is undoubtedly an effective tool in the hands of the installer - professional and amateur. Thanks to the unique clamping system, it allows you to significantly shorten the time of connecting wires and simplify the process to such an extent that it is not necessary to use specialized tools. You don't even have to be an electrician. Properly prepared cables simply insert into the quick connector and close. The transparent material allows optical inspection of the plug. There are many sizes and shapes of connectors to choose from, which makes it easier to select a solution for a specific project and purpose, e.g. for an electrical switchboard or an installation box.
A solidly constructed and properly selected quick cable connector allows for a safe and stable connection, without any looseness or risk of disconnection, which translates into reliable operation of the entire electrical installation. In this way, pneumatic, gas, vacuum, water and other lines can be connected temporarily or permanently. Contrary to appearances, tearing out a cable or wire requires a lot of effort. The attractive price of these elements also determines the high efficiency of electrical installation works using quick connectors. This is the cheapest solution available on the market, used to cut off the flow of electricity and protect the installation in the event of detection of operational irregularities.
For maximum efficiency of the connections you create, choose quick connectors made of high-quality materials (e.g. polycarbonate, stainless steel, copper), resistant to difficult environmental conditions, from reputable manufacturers. One of the leaders in the field of electrical connection techniques is the German company WAGO. The WAGO quick connector saves time, does not require maintenance and guarantees excellent contact quality regardless of the skill of the installer. The WAGO connector is a universal solution - it is a reliable choice for many installation tasks.
How much current can quick connectors withstand?
The quick connector can operate with a nominal current of up to 32A/450V. This connector can be safely used in three-phase (power) installations. Of course, the maximum current carrying capacity depends on the specific model, so read the technical data carefully and check the compliance of the selected quick connectors with the installation requirements.
How many quick connectors can be placed in the box?
The only right answer to this question is: it depends - in particular on the size of the can you have and on the recommendations of its manufacturer. Some installers will say that as much as... will fit in the box or box, but we recommend keeping to the maximum number of both connectors and cables.
Guidelines in this regard can be found in the VDE 0606-1:2000-10 standard and on the housings of installation boxes and boxes. The guidelines of electrical equipment manufacturers must be strictly followed - for the safety of household members and equipment and the effectiveness of pursuing any claims under warranty, guarantees or insurance policies. However, we have complete freedom regarding the installation position of the quick connectors. The standard says nothing about this.
