10-Position, 5.00 mm Pitch, Rising Cage Clamp
The 1-284040-0 is a 10-position plug from TE's Buchanan series, using a rising cage clamp termination that accepts 12-30 AWG wire with a strip length of 6-7.5 mm. The 5.00 mm pitch keeps board-side routing straightforward for industrial control panels and power distribution blocks. Rated 15 A per position at 300 V UL, with a UL94 V-0 polyamide housing that holds up in equipment requiring flame-rated materials. The 270° wire entry angle helps dress cables tightly against the panel wall.
Active Production and Cross-Reference Options
1-284040-0 carries an Active lifecycle status with ROHS3 compliance. Peer MPNs from the same series include 1-2213934-1, 1-2305909-1, and 1-2213935-1 — all active, bulk-packaged Buchanan plugs. The closest functional alternative depends on position count and wire entry angle; verify the specific pitch and termination style before substituting.
Termination and Wire Preparation
Wire range spans 12-30 AWG (0.05-3 mm²), with a strip length of 6-7.5 mm. Retention latches on the non-wire side hold the plug in the header against vibration common in industrial enclosures.
