Product details

It carries a 125 A per-circuit rating at 600 V, with a 15.00 mm pitch that provides the creepage distance needed for that voltage class. The green housing is molded from PA66 (Nylon 6/6), rated for continuous operation from -40°C to 105°C — suited for industrial control cabinets, power supplies, and battery management systems where the board carries the main DC rail or AC line input.

Termination is via a screw-driven rising cage clamp — the screw turns to lift the clamp plate, pulling the wire against the current bar. The specified torque is 3.4 Nm (30 Lb-In), which is higher than typical small-signal terminal blocks; a torque screwdriver or driver with a clutch is recommended to avoid stripping the tri-chromate plated steel screw. The clamp accepts wire from 1 AWG down to 20 AWG, covering heavy power cable through control wiring in a single block. The contact material is brass with tin plating, adequate for the current rating and compatible with copper conductors. The single-level design keeps the two positions on one row, simplifying layout for a 2-circuit power input or output.

Frequently asked questions

What wire gauge does the 1986242-2 accept?

The 1986242-2 accepts wire from 1 AWG to 20 AWG, covering heavy power cable through smaller control wiring in a single terminal block.

What torque is required for the 1986242-2 screw terminals?

The specified torque is 3.4 Nm (30 Lb-In). Use a torque screwdriver or clutch driver to avoid over-torquing the tri-chromate plated steel screw.

Is the 1986242-2 RoHS compliant?

Yes, the 1986242-2 is ROHS3 Compliant, covering the EU RoHS directive with no exemptions.
