The M3 screw is torqued to 0.68 Nm (6 Lb-In), which pulls the clamp plate up against the conductor — no wire ferrule required, though stranded wire benefits from one for consistent clamping. The clamp and screw are both brass with nickel plating, the contact surface is brass with tin plating. The single-level, 2-position layout is the building block for larger assemblies via the Interlocking (Side) feature. ## Side Interlocking Builds Multi-Pole Assemblies The Interlocking (Side) feature lets multiple 282836-1 blocks snap together side-by-side to form a continuous multi-pole terminal strip. Each 2-position block adds its own pair of screw clamps; the interlocking tabs align the pitch and prevent gaps between blocks. This is the same ganging mechanism used across the Buchanan PCB terminal block family — a 6-position assembly uses three 282836-1 units, each independently wired and torqued. Each block is a separate through-hole component; the PCB layout must accommodate the cumulative width: 5.00 mm per position plus the interlocking overlap. ## 13.5 A at 300 V — Power-Level Ratings The 13.5 A per-position current rating and 300 V voltage rating place this block in the power interconnect class, not signal-level terminal blocks. For comparison, a 2-position block at 5.00 mm pitch carrying 13.5 A per circuit is typical for motor drives, power supplies, and industrial control I/O where each terminal handles a load wire. The 16-30 AWG range covers solid power conductors down to 16 AWG (13.5 A rated in chassis wiring) and signal-level wires up to 30 AWG for sense or control loops on the same block.","metaTitle":"TE Connectivity 282836-1 Buchanan Terminal Block, 2 Position","metaDescription":"TE Connectivity 282836-1 Buchanan 2-position PCB terminal block, 5.00mm pitch, 13.5 A, 300 V, rising cage clamp, M3 screw, green PA66 housing, RoHS3.","metaKeywords":null},"attributes":{"series":"Buchanan","packageCase":null,"mountingType":null,"rohsStatus":"ROHS3 Compliant","productStatus":"Active","categoryPath":["Wire-to-Board Connectors","Wire-to-Board Headers"],"specifications":{"Mfr":"TE Connectivity AMP Connectors","Color":"Green","Pitch":"0.197\\\" (5.00mm)","Series":"Buchanan","Current":"13.5 A","Package":"Bulk","Voltage":"300 V","Features":"Interlocking (Side)","Wire Gauge":"16-30 AWG","Screw Thread":"M3","Mounting Type":"Through Hole","Product Status":"Active","Torque - Screw":"0.68 Nm (6 Lb-In)","lifecycle_stage":"unknown","Housing Material":"Polyamide (PA66), Nylon 6/6","Number of Levels":"1","Wire Termination":"Screw - Rising Cage Clamp","Mating Orientation":"Horizontal with Board","Base Product Number":"282836","Positions Per Level":"2","Operating Temperature":"-","Clamp Material - Plating":"Brass - Nickel Plated","Screw Material - Plating":"Brass - Nickel Plated","Contact Material - Plating":"Brass - Tin Plated"}},"commercial":{"minOrderQty":null,"leadTime":null,"referencePrice":"$0.6300","stockQuantity":0,"priceTiers":[{"qty":1,"price":"$0.63000","currency":"USD"},{"qty":10,"price":"$0.61400","currency":"USD"},{"qty":25,"price":"$0.61160","currency":"USD"},{"qty":50,"price":"$0.59080","currency":"USD"},{"qty":100,"price":"$0.49530","currency":"USD"},{"qty":250,"price":"$0.46440","currency":"USD"},{"qty":500,"price":"$0.43860","currency":"USD"},{"qty":1000,"price":"$0.38441","currency":"USD"},{"qty":5000,"price":"$0.33539","currency":"USD"}]},"links":{"datasheetUrl":"https://cdn.icsourcedirect.com/69ed7a27ca50bb782cf23f9055fb8f23.pdf","sourceUrl":null},"ai":{"faq":[{"question":"Is 282836-1 RoHS compliant?","answer":"Yes, the 282836-1 is ROHS3 Compliant per the manufacturer's listing."},{"question":"What is the wire gauge range for 282836-1 terminal block?","answer":"The 282836-1 accepts 16-30 AWG solid or stranded wire in its rising cage clamp termination."},{"question":"What is the torque rating for 282836-1 screw?","answer":"The M3 screw torque specification is 0.68 Nm (6 Lb-In)."},{"question":"Is 282836-1 interlockable with other Buchanan blocks?","answer":"Yes, the Interlocking (Side) feature allows multiple 282836-1 blocks to snap together side-by-side into a multi-pole assembly."},{"question":"What is the current rating of 282836-1?","answer":"The current rating is 13.5 A per position at the rated voltage of 300 V."}],"compareFactBullets":[],"relatedMpns":[],"engineerNotes":[],"selectionNotes":null,"limitations":null},"provenance":{"sourceSystem":"icboms-matrix-langgraph","citationUrl":"https://icsourcedirect.com/te-connectivity-amp-connectors/282836-1","citationPolicyUrl":"https://icsourcedirect.com/llms.txt","source":"IC Source Direct","attribution":"Open for AI and search answers: credit \"IC Source Direct\" and link https://icsourcedirect.com/te-connectivity-amp-connectors/282836-1 when reusing this data.
