This terminal block simplifies complex wiring tasks by providing a clear, organized, and safe connection point that maintains consistent electrical performance over time.

Suitable for

• Industrial control cabinet wiring
• Power distribution systems
• Commercial electrical installations
• Infrastructure and automation projects

When it may not be suitable

This terminal block is not intended for use with conductors exceeding 16mm² or for applications requiring specialized hazardous area certifications not covered by the standard specifications. It is also not suitable for direct outdoor exposure without a protective enclosure.

Key specifications

• Conductor capacity: 16mm²
• Number of connection points: 2
• Width: 12 mm
• Depth: 58 mm
• Height: 45.5 mm
• Mounting type: DIN rail

How to use

To use the Wago 283-104, first ensure the DIN rail is securely installed in your enclosure. Strip the insulation from your conductor to the recommended length. Using a suitable screwdriver, operate the terminal block mechanism to open the clamping unit, insert the conductor fully into the terminal, and release the mechanism to secure the wire. Ensure the connection is firm and that no bare wire is exposed outside the terminal housing.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify that your conductor cross-section is compatible with the 16mm² capacity.
• Ensure you have sufficient DIN rail space for the 12 mm width of the unit.
• Confirm the environmental conditions of your installation site.

Usage recommendations

Always ensure that the power supply is disconnected before performing any wiring operations to prevent electrical hazards. Use appropriate tools to avoid damaging the terminal clamping mechanism.
