The screw - rising cage clamp mechanism pulls the wire against a clamp plate as the screw is tightened, providing a gas-tight connection without damaging the conductor. Strip the wire to 5-6mm, insert it into the 180° wire entry, and tighten the M2 screw to 0.31 Nm — the torque limit prevents thread stripping in the PA66 housing. The side stacking feature lets multiple 284506-2 plugs be ganged side-by-side on the same header, expanding the circuit count without additional wiring or separate headers — useful when a 2-position block is the building block for a larger terminal array.
