The housing accepts male or female crimp contacts (sold separately) and uses a latch lock fastening type to keep the mated pair secure under vibration — common in appliance, automotive, and industrial control harnesses. ## Sizing the Harness: Position Count and Row Spacing With 6 positions arranged in 3 rows, this plug housing carries a 0.250-inch (6.35 mm) row spacing. That row spacing is wide enough to handle moderate current per circuit without excessive temperature rise — the limiting factor becomes the crimp terminal and wire gauge, not the housing itself. Compared to the 9-position sibling 1-480706-1, which shares the same 3-row layout and 0.250-inch spacing, the 6-position version fits harnesses that need fewer circuits but the same connector footprint width. For a 6-circuit BOM line, this is the exact count match; the 9-position would leave three cavities unused. ## Mating Half and Termination Check This plug housing mates with the matching Universal MATE-N-LOK receptacle header (panel-mount or free-hanging, same series). The latch lock on the plug engages the receptacle's locking ramp for a positive audible click. Termination is crimp-style: the installer selects the correct male or female contact, crimps it to the stripped wire, and inserts it into the housing cavity until the retention lance seats. The 3-row cavity layout is keyed — the housing profile prevents mismating with a 2-row or single-row counterpart.","metaTitle":"TE 1-480704-1 Universal MATE-N-LOK Plug, 6 Pos, Brown","metaDescription":"TE 1-480704-1 Universal MATE-N-LOK plug housing, 6 positions, 3 rows, 0.250\" row spacing, brown nylon, latch lock.
