Rated at 9 A and 300 V UL, it uses a screwless push-in spring termination that accepts 14-30 AWG wire (0.05-2 mm²). Side stacking allows ganging multiple 2-position plugs into a wider terminal block assembly without extra hardware, simplifying multi-circuit builds. The 180° wire entry means cables exit straight out the back, which helps in shallow enclosures or when routing wires along a cable tray. ## Current, Voltage, and Wire Range — What Fits At 9 A per circuit, the current rating is set by the tin-plated copper alloy contacts and the 3.81 mm pitch. For continuous duty at 110°C ambient, derate per the UL current-temperature curve; in a 50°C cabinet the plug can run at full 9 A without exceeding the 30°C temperature rise limit of the housing material. The 300 V UL rating covers most industrial control voltages up to 277 VAC line-to-neutral. The 11.66 mm insulation height provides adequate creepage distance for pollution degree 2 environments. Wire range 14-30 AWG (0.05-2 mm²) accepts both solid and stranded conductors; the spring cage grips the full conductor cross-section without cold flow. ## Side Stacking and Free-Hanging Mounting Side stacking is a key feature: each 2-position plug can be interlocked with an adjacent plug of the same series to form a multi-position assembly. No additional hardware or tools are needed — the plugs snap together side-by-side, increasing the circuit count while maintaining the 3.81 mm pitch. Free hanging (in-line) mounting means the plug is not board-mounted; it mates with a PCB header or receptacle. The 180° wire entry keeps the cable path straight, which is useful for wire routing in control cabinets or terminal boxes where space is tight. ## Lifecycle and Sourcing — Active Production ROHS3 compliant. ## Peer Comparison — Similar TE Terminal Block Plugs Peer parts 1-2213934-1, 1-2305909-1, and 1-2213935-1 are also active TE terminal block plugs in bulk packaging. They may differ in position count (e.g., 3 or 4 positions) or pitch; the 1986720-2 is a 2-position, 3.81 mm pitch variant. If your BOM requires more circuits, one of these peers may be a direct fit without changing the termination style or housing material.","metaTitle":"1986720-2 TE Connectivity Terminal Block Plug 2POS 3.81mm","metaDescription":"1986720-2 TE Connectivity AMP Connectors terminal block plug, 2 positions, 3.81mm pitch, 9 A, 300 V, push-in spring termination, side stacking, ROHS3","metaKeywords":null},"attributes":{"series":null,"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":"Green","Pitch":"0.150\\\" (3.81mm)","Series":"-","Package":"Bulk","Features":"Side Stacking","Screw Size":"-","Current - UL":"9 A","Voltage - UL":"300 V","Current - IEC":"-","Mounting Type":"Free Hanging (In-Line)","Product Status":"Active","Torque - Screw":"-","Plug Wire Entry":"180°","lifecycle_stage":"unknown","Contact Material":"Copper Alloy","Housing Material":"Polyamide (PA), Nylon","Number of Levels":"1","Insulation Height":"0.459\\\" (11.66mm)","Termination Style":"Screwless - Leg Spring, Push-In Spring","Wire Strip Length":"-","Header Orientation":"-","Ingress Protection":"-","Base Product Number":"1986720","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":"14-30 AWG","Wire Gauge or Range - mm²":"0.05-2mm²","Material Flammability Rating":"UL94 V-0"}},"commercial":{"minOrderQty":null,"leadTime":null,"referencePrice":"$3.1200","priceTiers":[{"qty":1,"price":"$3.12000","currency":"USD"},{"qty":10,"price":"$2.36400","currency":"USD"},{"qty":25,"price":"$2.19080","currency":"USD"},{"qty":50,"price":"$1.97000","currency":"USD"},{"qty":100,"price":"$1.92190","currency":"USD"},{"qty":250,"price":"$1.68168","currency":"USD"},{"qty":500,"price":"$1.53754","currency":"USD"},{"qty":1000,"price":"$1.39340","currency":"USD"},{"qty":5000,"price":"$1.22523","currency":"USD"}]},"links":{"datasheetUrl":"https://cdn.icsourcedirect.com/8ce8efa928a9ebfb9c3940e8a9c58807.pdf","sourceUrl":null,"alternativesUrl":"https://icsourcedirect.com/api/mcp/products/1986720-2/alternatives.json"},"ai":{"faq":[{"question":"Does the 1986720-2 support side stacking?","answer":"Yes, side stacking is a listed feature.
