Housing for a Two-Circuit Power or Signal Pair
The TE Connectivity 794896-3 is the 2-position receptacle housing from the Mini-Universal MATE-N-LOK series, a family built for wire-to-wire and wire-to-board power interconnects in appliances, HVAC, and industrial control panels. The natural PA6 nylon body carries two circuits in a single row, with a 0.163" (4.14 mm) row spacing that gives enough creepage for the voltage levels typical of these applications. The -40°C to 90°C operating range covers most indoor equipment and outdoor enclosures that stay out of direct engine heat. The panel mount, snap-in feature lets you secure the housing to a chassis cutout before wiring, which simplifies harness assembly in a production line.
Sourcing the Full Mated Pair
For a BOM that calls out exactly 2 circuits, this is the correct housing.
What the Locking Ramp Means for the Harness
The natural PA6 material carries a UL94 V-2 or V-0 rating depending on the specific grade used in this production lot — check the part marking on the housing for the exact flame class if your enclosure requires it.
