®
connectors provide 600 Volts
continuous AC or DC operation. Wire sizes
range from #2 to #8 AWG (33.6 to 8.4 mm²).
FEATURES
• Flat wiping contact system
Minimal contact resistance at high current,
wiping action cleans contact surface during
connection/disconnection
• Colored modular housings
Provides visual identification of proper
mating connector
• Molded-in dovetails
Secures individual connectors into "keyed"
assemblies which prevents misconnection
with similar configurations
