2-Conductor Lighting Connector
Wago 224-112
The Wago 224-112 Lighting Connector provides an efficient way to terminate solid aluminum conductors. By using Wago “Alu-Plus” Contact Paste, the connector eliminates the oxide film on aluminum conductors during clamping, preventing oxidation and corrosion. It is also suitable for mixed metal installations, as it protects against electrolytic corrosion between aluminum and copper conductors in the same terminal block.
Key Features:
- Aluminum Compatibility: Designed for solid aluminum conductors up to 4mm²/12 AWG when used with Alu-Plus Contact Paste.
- “Alu-Plus” Contact Paste: Destroys the oxide layer on aluminum during clamping, prevents future oxidation, and stops electrolytic corrosion between aluminum and copper conductors.
- Spring Clamp Technology: Ensures quick, tool-free, and secure connections, making installation easier.
- Corrosion Protection: Provides long-term protection against corrosion for reliable and durable connections.
How to Use with Aluminum Conductors:
- Clean the Conductor: Clean the aluminum conductor before termination to remove any contaminants.
- Apply Alu-Plus Contact Paste: Insert the conductor into the clamping unit filled with Alu-Plus or apply the paste along the entire surface of the aluminum conductor for extra protection.
Current Ratings for Aluminum Conductors:
- 2.5mm²: 16A
- 4mm²: 22A
Benefits of Using “Alu-Plus” Contact Paste:
- Removes Oxide Layer: Automatically breaks the oxide film, ensuring a clean connection.
- Prevents Oxidation: Stops new oxidation from forming at the clamping point, ensuring a stable connection.
- Prevents Corrosion: Protects against electrolytic corrosion between aluminum and copper conductors.
- Long-Term Reliability: Offers long-lasting protection, keeping connections secure over time.
Applications:
- Lighting Installations: Perfect for terminating solid aluminum conductors in lighting systems.
- Mixed Metal Connections: Ensures safe, corrosion-free connections when aluminum and copper conductors are used together.
The Wago 224-112 2-Conductor Lighting Connector offers a fast, safe, and corrosion-resistant solution for terminating aluminum conductors. With Wago’s reliable spring clamp technology and Alu-Plus Contact Paste, it ensures secure and long-lasting connections in lighting and electrical installations.
