Systems used in electrical installations have developed in recent years, which translates into safety and cost of implementation. An example is switchboards and the equipment used in them. Traditional solutions used when installing electrical switchboards require the use of screws, which increases the risk of making a mistake. This can be reduced thanks to Hager's innovative QuickConnect technology. This is a screwless solution that allows for quick installation of a safe electrical connection.

What is Hager's QuickConnect technology?
The QuickConnect connection method allows you to connect conductors as well as phase buses without screwing the terminals. QC technology works well in installations with various applications, both in residential switchboards and larger ones used in multi-residential and commercial buildings.
The main feature of Hager's QuickConnect technology is the ability to create an electrical installation faster and safer than ever before. By choosing this modular equipment, you save time needed to design the installation, including the electrical switchboard. Products available with QuickConnect connection technology include: residual current circuit breakers with overcurrent element, miniature circuit breakers, modular isolating switches, vertical and horizontal phase buses.
Each module made using QuickConnect technology has several solutions that facilitate assembly and disassembly. At the top there are output terminals associated with the QuickConnect system. Instead of screws, special hooks use springs. The QuickSnap latch located at its rear helps in quick disassembly of each component. Specialized BiConnect connectors are installed at the bottom. The rear one uses a screw mounting and protects against incorrect cable connection. The front connects to the phase bus via the QuickConnect plug-in system.
Connecting phase bus wires without screwing the terminals
The flagship feature of Hager 's QuickConnect technology is the ability to connect modular devices using phase buses. That's part of the plug-in, not screw-in philosophy behind the development of this solution. When assembling an electrical switchgear, it is enough to use a horizontal phase bus to connect all the elements of the modular equipment.
The use of phase buses in QC technology translates into many significant benefits. Firstly, it is a much safer system. By not using screws, the risk of installation error is reduced. In addition, both assembly and disassembly are much faster, and the rails eliminate the possibility of damaging the installation.
Plug-in connection of equipment elements using a phase bus also allows for significant savings. It is a cheaper solution and takes up less space. Especially compared to connecting with regular cables. The use of Quickconnect technology also facilitates possible repairs within the switchgear. Thanks to it, all equipment is easily accessible to the electrician and allows quick removal of damaged elements.
Convenient and quick switchgear design with the Hager Ready application
Configuration of equipment with QuickConnect technology is possible in the Hager Ready application. This is a special tool developed to design residential switchboards faster and safely. Using the application prevents errors when designing the installation, allows for the appropriate selection of products, and also allows you to generate and print professional labels to describe the switchgear. Modular equipment developed using QuickConnect connection technology is offered, among others, by the Onninen wholesaler. It is a Finnish company that has as many as 34 branches in Poland. Using its offer, you can order Hager products, including QuickConnect modular equipment
What will you find in the assortment? For example, there is a QuickConnect volta phase clamp available, which allows you to connect wires with a diameter of 1.5 to 4 mm. The terminal has one pole and its rated current In is 63 A. Onninen also offers a wide selection of supports with Pe/N terminals. The brackets are available in 1R, 2R, 3R and 4R versions.
You can also count on a wide range of residual current circuit breakers with a 1P+N overcurrent element. Versions with different rated current are available. The range is from 6 A to 40 A. The models also differ in trigger characteristics. There are type B switches that are suitable for home use, as well as type C switches that are suitable for larger installations.
As you can see, QuickConnect technology translates into more efficient and safer preparation of the electrical switchboard. Elements of this modern system can be found in the Onninen wholesaler.
