Wago 2273-205 Compact PUSH WIRE Connector, 5-Port, 450V, Yellow, 25 Pieces

The Wago 2273-205 Compact PUSH WIRE connector is a professional-grade electrical component designed for the efficient and secure connection of solid conductors. With its five-port configuration, this connector allows for streamlined electrical distribution within junction boxes, significantly reducing installation time and space requirements. Engineered for reliability, it supports a voltage rating of 450V and a current capacity of 24A, making it a versatile choice for various wiring tasks in both residential and commercial environments.

Advantages

The primary benefit of the Wago 2273-205 is its compact design, which maximizes space inside crowded junction boxes. The PUSH WIRE technology enables tool-free installation, allowing solid conductors to be inserted directly into the port for a firm, vibration-resistant connection. The clear, yellow housing provides easy identification, while the integrated test slot allows for convenient voltage verification without the need to disconnect the wiring. This system ensures consistent contact quality and long-term electrical safety.

Suitable for

• Residential electrical installations
• Commercial building wiring projects
• Junction box distribution
• Lighting system connections
• General solid conductor splicing

This connector is not suitable for use with stranded or flexible conductors, as it is specifically engineered for solid wire types. It should not be used in environments exceeding the specified voltage or current ratings, nor should it be utilized in outdoor or high-moisture areas unless housed within an appropriately rated, weather-protected enclosure.

Key specifications

• Connection ports: 5
• Rated voltage: 450V
• Rated current: 24A
• Conductor type: Solid
• Color: Yellow
• Quantity: 25 pieces

How to use

To use the Wago 2273-205, first strip the insulation from the solid conductor to the recommended length as indicated on the connector housing. Once the wire is prepared, push the conductor firmly into one of the five available ports until it is fully seated. The internal spring mechanism will automatically grip the wire, creating a secure electrical connection. To remove a wire, simply pull and twist the conductor while holding the connector firmly.

What to consider before purchase

• Ensure the conductor type is solid, as flexible wires are not compatible.
• Verify that the total current and voltage of your circuit do not exceed the specified limits.
• Check the available space in your junction box to ensure the compact size is appropriate for your layout.
• Confirm the number of connections required per junction point.

Always ensure that the power supply is completely disconnected before performing any electrical work. Verify all connections are secure and that no bare copper is exposed outside the connector housing before closing the junction box.
