Poke-In Wire Receptacle — No Crimp Terminal Needed
Rated 2 A per circuit at 400 V, it handles signal-level or low-power duty where a crimp-and-insert step would add cost for a two-wire connection. The tin-plated copper alloy contacts suit moderate mating-cycle applications in indoor equipment. The SMT mounting with bottom entry and through-board option lets you route the wire on either side of the board, which helps in tight enclosures where a right-angle header would force a bend radius conflict.
2 A at 400 V — Signal-Level Power, Not Bus Duty
At 400 V the creepage distance on a 3.30 mm pitch is adequate for basic indoor insulation class II equipment. The operating range of -20°C to 130°C covers most commercial and industrial cabinet environments, though the upper end is the housing material limit, not a continuous-current rating at that temperature.
Wire Gauge Window — 24-26 AWG Only
The poke-in mechanism is designed for a narrow wire range: 24-26 AWG. A 22 AWG wire is too thick for the contact beam to close properly, and 28 AWG may not make reliable contact. Strip length and insulation diameter also matter — the housing accepts the stripped conductor only, with the insulation butting against the entry. Confirm your wire's finished diameter against the housing entry before committing the BOM line.
