Product details

Two-position plug with side interlock for ganged terminal blocks

The 284509-2 is a 2-position plug from TE Connectivity's Buchanan series, rated 12 A at 150 V with a 3.81 mm pitch. It uses a screw rising cage clamp termination — the screw pushes a clamp down onto the stripped wire, giving a gas-tight connection without a separate ferrule. The side interlock feature lets you snap multiple plugs together side-by-side to build wider multi-position blocks from 2-position modules.
