What is the Wago 294-5042?

Field-wiring terminal block, 294 Series, Push-in

This field-wiring terminal block (item number 294-5042) is designed for simple and secure connections. Conductors should only be connected to this field-wiring terminal block if their strip length is between 8 and 9 mm . This product features four conductor terminals and utilizes Push-in CAGE CLAMP® as well as PUSH WIRE®. Push-in CAGE CLAMP® connection technology is ideal for connecting all conductor types. It allows direct insertion of both solid and fine-stranded conductors with ferrules without the need for tools—all thanks to its pluggable design. Our PUSH WIRE® connection uses the stiffness of the conductor to overcome the clamping spring's contact force, allowing you to clamp the conductor in place more quickly and easily. The item's dimensions are (20 x 21.53 x 27.3) mm (width x height x depth). Depending on the conductor type, this field-wiring terminal block is suitable for conductor cross sections ranging from 0.5 mm² to 2.5 mm² on one side and for conductor cross sections from 0.5 mm² to 2.5 mm² on the other side as well as conductor cross sections from 0.5 mm² to 1.5 mm² and from 0.5 mm² to 0.75 mm².

The contact surface is coated with tin.
