Housing Identity and Sourcing Reality
The TE Connectivity 3-794615-6 is a 6-position plug housing from the Micro MATE-N-LOK series, on 0.118" (3.00mm) pitch in a dual-row layout. One line you need to see before you BOM it: Contacts Not Included. This shell ships empty; you order the male pin contacts and a crimp tool separately.
Because the contacts are ordered separately, you'll need the TE male pin crimp terminals (typically 26-22 AWG or 22-18 AWG, depending on the current draw) and the appropriate hand or auto-applicator tooling. The crimp quality is what holds the connection together — section a sample and check the strand capture against the specified crimp height before you run the harness.
Comparison: Position Count and Pitch Across the Series
Within the Micro MATE-N-LOK series, the 3-794615-6 sits as a 6-position dual-row plug. A sibling like the 1-2333134-5 is a 30-position receptacle on a tighter 2.00mm pitch — different footprint, different board layout, different harness density. The decision between them is purely about circuit count and the mating half you already have in the assembly. No functional overlap; no substitute claim.
