The panel mount, snap-in feature allows the housing to be secured directly into a panel cutout without additional hardware — useful for bulkhead feed-through or enclosure-wall mounting where the connector needs to be fixed during cable assembly. The latch lock provides an audible click when mated, confirming full engagement with the matching header. ## Mating Half and Terminal Selection The 3-row, 12-position layout on 0.156\" pitch defines the mating interface — confirm the header has the same circuit count and row configuration. For the crimp terminals, select the appropriate Universal Power tab contact based on your wire size (typically 18-22 AWG for this series). The housing does not include a secondary lock or TPA — terminal retention relies on the primary lance in the cavity. Sourced through independent distribution channels. No minimum order quantity breaks are published — request an RFQ for your target volume. The part is available in bulk packaging.","metaTitle":"TE 176299-1 Universal Power Receptacle Housing, 12 Position","metaDescription":"TE Connectivity 176299-1 Universal Power receptacle housing, 12 circuits, 0.156\" (3.96mm) pitch, 3 rows, panel mount with latch lock.
