The TE Connectivity LUMAWISE 1-2363638-1 is a 4-position receptacle designed for Board to Cable/Wire interconnect in lighting and low-power industrial applications. It belongs to the LUMAWISE series, a family focused on modular, sealed connections for LED luminaires and outdoor fixtures. Key features include a Poke-In termination that accepts 18-20 AWG wire without a crimp tool, a black PBT housing rated IP66 for dust and water resistance, and tin-plated copper alloy contacts rated 1.5 A per circuit. The connector mounts through a panel cutout, making it a fixed-side interface for wire harnesses in enclosures, junction boxes, or luminaire housings.
The specified wire range is 18-20 AWG, which covers the typical lead gauge for LED modules, sensors, and low-current control circuits. For a harness builder, this means faster field assembly and fewer tooling errors, but the wire size must stay within that range; a 22 AWG or 16 AWG wire will not seat reliably.
With an IP66 rating — Dust Tight and Water Resistant — this receptacle can be used in outdoor luminaires, washdown areas, or damp industrial enclosures. The seal is effective when the connector is mated with its corresponding plug or cap; unmated, the panel mount gasket protects the rear.
