Overview
WAGO's 221 Series Splicing Connector with levers impresses with its innovative design for different conductor cross-sections. That’s why WAGO's lever-equipped splicing connector holds a unique trademark within electrical interconnection technology. The flat levers, which fit seamlessly into the 221’s base, act like a cast when closed and can be positioned neatly in any housing without disturbing edges. Due to the wide design of each leaver, they can all be operated perfectly without tools for convenient conductor terminations. The transparent housing displays robust technology and enables immediate visual inspection for the correct contact of solid, stranded and fine-stranded conductors. Resembling piano keys, the levers' design perfectly combines the functional and aesthetic connection technology "Made by WAGO." This product is designed for specific Ex applications (please refer to the product datasheet).
