2-Position 5.08mm Pitch Plug — What It Fits
The 284041-2: This is a 2-position plug from the TE Buchanan series, 0.200" (5.08mm) pitch, designed to mate with the matching 5.08mm-pitch header. The 2-circuit count is the minimum for a single-level block — use it for a single power pair or a signal loop where you need a disconnect point at the panel.
Termination and Retention — Field Wiring Checklist
Screw rising cage clamp termination accepts 12-30 AWG (0.05-3 mm²) solid or stranded wire. Strip length is 6-7.5mm; torque the M3 screw to 0.79 Nm (7.0 Lb-In) — the rising cage lifts the conductor against the current bar, no ferrule needed. The plug wire entry is 270°, meaning the cable exits at a right angle relative to the header pins, useful for tight enclosures where straight-in clearance is limited.
