It mates with a matching 5.08mm-pitch header to create a field-serviceable connection that carries 15 A per circuit at 300 V. Retention latches on the wire side lock the plug into the header, preventing vibration-induced disconnection in industrial control cabinets or power distribution panels. ## Termination and wiring details Each position is terminated with an M3 screw tightened to 0.79 Nm (7.0 Lb-In) over a rising cage clamp that secures the stripped conductor. The recommended wire strip length is 6-7.5mm. The closest functional second-source is the 1546118-2, which is also a 2-position plug with 15 A / 300 V rating but uses a 0.197\" (5.00mm) pitch and a 270° wire entry. The 1546122-2's 5.08mm pitch and 90° entry make it a direct fit for standard 5.08mm headers, while the 1546118-2 suits 5.00mm spaced boards. The 284047-2 is identical in pitch, torque, and wire entry angle but comes in a green housing — the 1546122-2's gray color may be preferred for visual wire identification in multi-circuit panels.","metaTitle":"1546122-2 TE Buchanan 2 Pos 5.08mm Plug Terminal Block","metaDescription":"1546122-2 TE Connectivity AMP Connectors Buchanan series 2-position plug, 0.200\" (5.08mm) pitch, 15 A, 300 V, screw rising cage clamp, gray, active production.","metaKeywords":null},"attributes":{"series":"Buchanan","packageCase":null,"mountingType":null,"rohsStatus":"ROHS3 Compliant","productStatus":"Active","categoryPath":["Pin Headers, Sockets & Housings","Header Plugs & Sockets"],"specifications":{"Mfr":"TE Connectivity AMP Connectors","Type":"Plug, Female Sockets","Color":"Gray","Pitch":"0.200\\\" (5.08mm)","Series":"Buchanan","Package":"Bulk","Features":"Retention Latches (Wire Side)","Screw Size":"M3","Current - UL":"15 A","Voltage - UL":"300 V","Current - IEC":"-","Mounting Type":"Free Hanging (In-Line)","Product Status":"Active","Torque - Screw":"0.79 Nm (7.0 Lb-In)","Plug Wire Entry":"90°","lifecycle_stage":"unknown","Contact Material":"Phosphor Bronze","Housing Material":"Polyamide (PA66), Nylon 6/6","Number of Levels":"1","Insulation Height":"0.984\\\" (25.00mm)","Termination Style":"Screw - Rising Cage Clamp","Wire Strip Length":"6-7.5mm","Header Orientation":"-","Ingress Protection":"-","Base Product Number":"1546122","Contact Tail Length":"-","Number of Positions":"2","Positions Per Level":"2","Contact Mating Finish":"Tin","Operating Temperature":"-40°C ~ 110°C","Wire Gauge or Range - AWG":"12-30 AWG","Wire Gauge or Range - mm²":"0.05-3mm²","Material Flammability Rating":"UL94 V-0"}},"commercial":{"minOrderQty":null,"leadTime":null,"referencePrice":"$1.6100","stockQuantity":0,"priceTiers":[{"qty":1,"price":"$1.61000","currency":"USD"},{"qty":10,"price":"$1.47500","currency":"USD"},{"qty":25,"price":"$1.43120","currency":"USD"},{"qty":50,"price":"$1.41660","currency":"USD"},{"qty":100,"price":"$1.31500","currency":"USD"},{"qty":250,"price":"$1.29316","currency":"USD"},{"qty":500,"price":"$1.17694","currency":"USD"},{"qty":1000,"price":"$1.05343","currency":"USD"},{"qty":5000,"price":"$0.94445","currency":"USD"}]},"links":{"datasheetUrl":null,"sourceUrl":null},"ai":{"faq":[{"question":"What is the wiring diagram for 1546122-2?","answer":"The 1546122-2 is a 2-position plug.
