IDEAL INDUSTRIES’ PUSH IN CONNECTORS PROVIDE FAST AND SAFE SOLUTION
 |
Suitable for a variety of applications, the durable connectors can reduce wiring time by up to 50 per cent as the simple glide-in wire connection of the In-Sure™ range makes installation easy. Composed of a clear polycarbonate shell, the user can also visually verify the connection.
The range is available in two through to eight-port models, and can accept a combination of 0.75 mm² to 2.5 mm² solid, or 1.5 mm² to 2.5 mm² rigid stranded wires. Other features include a check port for continuity testing and a built-in strip length gauge.
In-Sure™ connectors conform to EN60998-2-2 and are rated to 24A at 450V maximum. The range is also CE marked and UL listed.
Phil Roberts, UK sales manager for IDEAL Industries – Electrical division comments: “When using traditional terminal strips the screws can work loose over time, causing arcing in the connector. This then presents a potential fire risk and is just one of the reasons why push-in connectors are being more widely used instead of terminal blocks in numerous applications. Their ergonomic design also offers an easy method for connecting wires. In addition, the reduction in wiring time is a huge benefit to electricians and contractors as time is money”.
