ആമുഖം
This manual provides essential information for the safe and effective use of WAGO 221 Series COMPACT Splicing Connectors. These connectors are designed for fast, reliable, and safe connection of all common wire types, including solid, stranded, and fine-stranded conductors, ranging from 12 to 24 AWG.
The WAGO 221 connectors feature operating levers for easy, tool-free wire insertion and removal, making them suitable for a wide range of electrical applications.
സുരക്ഷാ വിവരങ്ങൾ
- Always disconnect power to the circuit before installing or removing connectors. Failure to do so may result in electric shock or injury.
- Ensure that the wire gauge and type are compatible with the connector's specifications (12-24 AWG).
- പരമാവധി വോള്യം കവിയരുത്tage (450 V / 1000 V for signs and fixtures) or current (32 A) ratings.
- Verify that wires are fully inserted and levers are securely closed to ensure a proper connection.
- Do not use damaged connectors.
- Consult local electrical codes and regulations for proper installation practices.

സജ്ജമാക്കുക
Before connecting wires, ensure they are properly prepared according to the following steps:
- വൈദ്യുതി വിച്ഛേദിക്കൽ: Turn off the power supply to the circuit you are working on. Verify with a voltagഇ ടെസ്റ്റർ.
- വയർ സ്ട്രിപ്പിംഗ്: Carefully strip the insulation from the end of each wire. The recommended strip length is 11 mm (0.43 inches). Use a wire stripper to avoid damaging the conductor.
- വയറുകൾ പരിശോധിക്കുക: Ensure the stripped wire ends are clean, straight, and free from frayed strands.
പ്രവർത്തന നിർദ്ദേശങ്ങൾ
Follow these steps to make a secure electrical connection using WAGO 221 Splicing Connectors:
- Open Lever: For each wire entry port you intend to use, lift the orange operating lever to its fully open (vertical) position.
- വയർ ചേർക്കുക: Insert the stripped end of the prepared wire completely into the open port. Ensure no bare conductor is visible outside the connector and that the insulation reaches the internal stop.
- Close Lever: Push the orange operating lever down firmly until it clicks into its closed (horizontal) position. This secures the wire connection.
- കണക്ഷൻ സ്ഥിരീകരിക്കുക: Gently tug on the wire to confirm it is securely held by the connector. The transparent housing allows for visual inspection of the connection.
- ആവർത്തിക്കുക: Repeat steps 1-4 for all other wires you wish to connect to the splicing connector.
മെയിൻ്റനൻസ്
WAGO 221 Splicing Connectors are designed for maintenance-free operation once installed correctly. However, consider the following for optimal performance and longevity:
- സംഭരണം: Store unused connectors in a clean, dry environment, away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures.
- പരിശോധന: Periodically inspect installed connectors for any signs of damage, discoloration, or loose connections, especially in high-vibration or high-temperature environments.
- വൃത്തിയാക്കൽ: If necessary, gently wipe the exterior of the connectors with a dry, lint-free cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents.
ട്രബിൾഷൂട്ടിംഗ്
| പ്രശ്നം | സാധ്യമായ കാരണം | പരിഹാരം |
|---|---|---|
| Wire does not insert fully. | Lever not fully open; wire end is bent or frayed; insulation not stripped to correct length. | Ensure lever is vertical; straighten or re-strip wire to 11 mm (0.43 in). |
| Lever does not close securely. | Wire not fully inserted; incorrect wire gauge. | Push wire in further until it hits the stop; verify wire is within 12-24 AWG range. |
| Loose connection after installation. | Lever not fully closed; wire not stripped correctly; damaged connector. | Ensure lever is horizontal and clicked; re-strip and re-insert wire; replace connector if damaged. |
