Wago 221-613 Lever-Nuts 10AWG 3 Conductor Compact Wire Connectors 10 PK Bag

I've been using Wago connectors for a while and love their convenience, the fact that you can see that the wires are fully inserted into the connector, and they take up less space in the box that traditional wire nuts. They are particularly useful when you have to connect stranded wire to solid wire. I've had a couple of 220V appliances that I had to rewire and the usual Wago connectors would not work with the 10 gauge wire, so I purchased the 221-613 connectors. The appliances had stranded wire, so this solved my usual issues with stranded wire to solid wire. The picture shows the usual 221-413 connector for 12 gauge wire on the left and the larger 221-613 on the right.

And they're fantastic. I spliced in my power source to an outlet daisy chain and these were great for that. used 3, cut the wires to the outlet and plugged both sides plus the source drop in. They snap into place and stay secure. no crimping. or soldering. or heat shrinking. Give the wire a tug to make sure you've got it all the way in there and it's secure. seems to be difficult to find these type of things for 10AWG so I was happy when I ran across them. Saved a good bit of time for me. very much worth the money in my opinion.

I love wagos! I use them all the time! I needed the larger size to use In my DIY camper van main breaker panel. I used a square D homeline panel in my van conversion. As many know, any residential breaker panel is designed for 240V electrical service with 2 hot legs. I hooked up 120V 30 amp service in my van. So I used this wago to split the incoming hot wire into 2 and backfed 2 single pole 30 amp breakers (tied together at the handle) to energize both sides of my panel. It worked great and was way better than stuffing the 10 AWG wire into the regular wago. Yes, I did that before I knew the bigger wagos existed, but I feel much safer now that I have the proper size connection. I only bought the pack of 10 because I only truly need 1 that was able to accommodate 10 AWG wire but because these have a large range of acceptable wire sizes I was able to use the rest of them around my van on the various 15 amp circuits that use 14 AWG wire! On a side note, I used exclusively stranded wire in my van conversion but these also work well on standard Romex wire, I used the 5 conductor version when I replaced the outlet in my bathroom that was daisy chained 4 different ways! ( The house was built in the 50s and the electrical is a complete cluster!)

I really like it

Used these instead of wire nuts. So much easier and cleaner look inside the disconnect. Definitely recommended.

These made the replacement of a light on the ceiling of my back porch much easier than it would have been had I used standard wire nuts. The wires coming out of the box were short and with my large hands, it would have been quite tedious to attach them to the wires on the light fixture if I had to twist regular wire nuts onto them. These little lever nuts worked like a charm - well worth the cost.

These work great. I wish that there was a size for 8 AWG wire.

i used with some dielectric grease
