The closed-end housing prevents wire over-insertion and provides a positive stop for the cable jacket during IDC termination. ## Termination and Wire Handling The 18 AWG wire gauge is the only supported size; verify the harness wire gauge matches before specifying. The free-hanging (in-line) mount suits point-to-point or daisy-chain wiring inside an enclosure.","metaTitle":"TE MTA-156 3-641217-3 Receptacle, 3 Pos, IDC, Gold","metaDescription":"TE Connectivity MTA-156 receptacle, 3 positions, 0.156\" pitch, IDC termination, 18 AWG, gold 30.0µin contacts.
