The 284046-2: The 15 A rating holds at 25 °C ambient; above that, derate per the UL current-temperature curve in the product drawing.
The retention latches on the wire side lock the plug to the header, preventing back-out under vibration. For repeated field-service disconnects, consider a gold-plated sibling if available in the same series.
ROHS3 Compliant per entry — no RoHS exemption issues for EU-market builds.
Determines if the plug can handle the load in your application.
Ensures the plug is suitable for your system voltage requirements.
Pitch must match the mating header or PCB layout for proper fit.
Proper torque ensures reliable wire connection without damage.
Screw size impacts the wire termination tool and force required.
Mounting type (free hanging) determines installation method and compatibility.
