Wire Connector 600 V Clear 4 Conductor 100 / Box

Love these things! Sure, wire nuts are cheaper and work great, but I was first introduced to these when installing a Wink Relay for my smart home. The relay came with a few of these (or some version of them) and they were a lifesaver because I was using a box that was at the end of the line and had a boatload of wire nuts and connectors in a small space. When it came time to push it all in the gang box, it wouldn't fit. But when I took several of the larger wire nuts out and used these instead, it freed up a LOT of room and everything fit again. Definitely makes it easy to recover some space in a crowded gang box when you need it. And they are an elegant solution. Easy to use and clean installation. You can easily tell if they are connected and it is just a really nice way to do things. At roughly 10 cents a piece at the time that I bought them, they aren't cheap - but unless you are doing a whole house, then they aren't expensive either. They are worth it to me for the ease of use and space savings they offer. Oh yeah, and the box is really nice too! It actually has a design that lets you open and close it easily. It is surprisingly well done for a box that holds a bunch of wire connectors!

These are a bit pricey, but they make connecting solid conductors very quick and easy. I tried to use this type of connector on stranded wire once and I couldn't get it to work, which it is supposed to, at least for some wire gauges. I will try again in the future with stranded cable, but these are perfect for solid conductors.

I can't adequately describe how much I love these WAGO nuts. With the old style twist on nuts it seemed you were always concerned that one of the wires might not be in tight. But with the WAGO nuts you press eact wire in and can see that it's in good. They are also a lifesaver when dealing with old work in a cramped box. So much easier to press a short wire in with needle nose pliars than havecto bundle them together and twist on a nut while hoping nothing is loose. Extra nice being able to remove a single wire without having to disturb the rest. The testing port is nice as well - no worry about whether or not your probe made it past the press of insulation and found the copper with these bad boys. The only downside is that you are limited to 4 wires per nut. Ihave a handful of 5 and 6 wire WAGO nuts for those rare occasions that I bought in 10 packs but since almost everything that needs splicing is 3 or 4 wires, these get it done. Really no different than having to have a few red or green oldstyle nuts in your belt for the few times a yellow wasnt big enough. I've never used these with anything but solid wire but I trust WAGO if they say it works with stranded.

I've never used this type of push-in wire connector before, although I've seen them used in the trade by others with mixed success. I finally decided to give it a try with a remodeling job where I had a lot of connections in several boxes and little room. Here's my experience: Wires must be stripped to the proper length. This is much more critical than with twist connectors (wire nuts). Too short and they won't make proper connection since they may not be able to insert fully, too long and you will have exposed bare wire which could make contact with other conductors or the box and equipment metal. Improper length is likely the main problem that people have had. The wire appears to make good contact inside the connector and the clear plastic allows you to see that (or if you need to push more wire in). You still need nearly as much free wire penetrating from the box. The two-wire connectors are easy to get aligned, but the multiple connectors need the wire length so you can get them pushed into the connector straight in and without bending the wire. I was unable to do this without using pliers except for the two-wire connectors, although with more experience it may become simpler. So unless you are really experienced, these are probably not faster. The real benefit is that (except for the two-wire connectors) these push-in connectors take much less room in the box, especially considering that with twist-type connectors, the wires must be all lined up parallel with each other for an inches or two before entering the connector. More than a couple of twist connectors containing three or more wires each and you are soon fighting for more box space. With these push-in connectors, each wire can bend in a different direction as soon as it leaves the conector. A final note. Removing solid wire from these connectors is easy: just rotate the wire while pulling it out. Stranded wires must be cut and the connector discarded and replaced. Amazon had the best price for the types that I needed, but if you only need a couple, you may be able to get a small selection from Lowes or Home Depot immediately and at less cost.

did the trick, thanks!

Half way though my basement remodel I found these, wish I found them earlier. I have been doing my own electrical, I am not a licensed professional but I have done enough over the years I feel extremely confident that I won't make critical mistakes. Once you skin your wire to the correct length and push it in it makes an extremely good connection, feels better to me than any wire nut I have used in the past. You can get the wire back out, but it takes a lot of work and does damage to the wire (and I assume the teeth on the inside of the connector). I have seen these on can lights years ago and never though to look for them, big time saver.

Precio inmejorable. Calidad probada; conocí esta marca por unas muestras recibidas en una exposición de automatización y ya control. Ahora los encuentro en Amazon completamente originales y a un excelente precio

Excellent best connectors I’ve used no more little screws just push and job done

Good price. Makes joining wires so easy. Same for dismantling

for the ppl that complain about multi Strand Wire being an issue. just solder those wire ends and you won't have any issues. it's pretty straight forward stuff. that will fix your issues. these are great. the clip style ones work better for multi Strand but these have way more grip.

Estor a productos Wago son muy buenos
