Questions & Answers
You can use them with different wire sizes. Here's the way I do it. This type of connector is designed for use with thin led wires, such as those found in fixtures, A connector is also available that will hold THHN #10 wire. The connection was fast and the security was excellent
In fact, they are rated for 41 amps, but their size is limited by code to 10awg wire and 30 amps, so they are not rated for higher.
Wire nuts for electrical power connections should be replaced with these devices, and they should never be used where water could collect. Antenna connections would not be possible with these cables as they would not maintain the characteristic impedance of common transmission lines, like coaxial cable. It should be possible to connect devices designed for that purpose. In places where impedance is not important, such as for safety grounding, I would use grounding clamps designed for the In the case of unemployed Designed with long-term tuning in mind Ensure antennas are wired, solder connections are made, and strain reliefs are provided. NOW COME ON, as for the WIRE NUT REPLACEMENT, they work well. Installed in less than five minutes and is very convenient!
A wire with an 8AWG size can be connected to a Wago connector.

In addition to the 2, 3 and 5 connector versions, I also purchased the 2, 3 and 5 connector versions for a project in my shed, where I was using all solid wire 15 gauge. It was one of the only such products I could find for this I did not find it to be effective It is difficult to stuff the wire back in the electrical box and mount all the covers with solid 10 gauge because it is thick. As I was fastening the outlets, switches, or even blank plates, multiple wires were pulled out. The GFCI in line with several of the outlets was tripping because several switches did not function. There was a problem with a security light. Despite the wires coming out so easily, I gave it one star as part of an overall rating and five stars as Easy to Remove because of the wires pulling out so easily, despite that being contrary to the instructions. This is not something I would purchase The local Habitat For Humanity resale store has been benefiting from my donations. It wouldn't be fair to them to treat them like that. The trash will take care of them.
The connection is better and the safety is increased. The electrical supply of my RV is interrupted by things like wire nuts that are used to connect to many circuits. Several of these wire nuts are the cause of the interruption of electricity. It doesn't appear that there was any issue with arcing, which could result in The majority of people do not realize that for a wire nut to be tightened, a mechanical connection of the wires must first be made, i. e. the wires must be twisted together. It is not possible to bind the wires together with wire nuts, but merely to insulate and insure the connection with wire nuts. Additionally, connecting solid wire and stranded wire together without a connector can cause problems. Wire nuts improve the quality of the connection and provide a reduced risk of arcing because they allow the wires to be bound more closely together.
There are things here that will change your life. Even though I won't say that there are no situations where I will still use wirenuts (such as terminating single conductors and using water resistant nuts), they seem to be generally better for every other application. It's much better now. The number of wires in my EMT made it necessary for me to run a circuit of workshop receptacles using derated (in this case, upsized) conductors. I'm very happy that Wago makes this up to a size of I found them to be effective with solid copper 10 wire, and they save some space in the box, which is always a plus. Other than for dry locations, I have known of using smaller gauges for some automotive wiring (moots and horns only). Purchased this item and am very satisfied with it.
I had to watch a youtube video to learn how to use this tool. Using a lever to pull When i first pulled the levers back, I was not sure how much pressure to use so I was hesitant. However, it was a solid plastic piece of construction, and it worked very well. It takes a long time to lift the lever up to open the latches, but once it does, it snaps in place securely. It's really nice to have connectors like these. I think they're well worth the price, even though they're a little pricey.
It was on youtube that I found these (Sparky channel) and the first thing I noticed is they are great for pig tailing, and the feel much more reliable to me than the wire ends I was using before. A switch, a couple of light fixtures, and several outlets were installed with them. This is a very secure connection (I tape mine, but you could probably do this without it). I think the only downside is it is bulkier than a traditional wire nut, so it was more difficult to get the slim GFC outlets into the box (GFCI outlets have bigger back edges) especially when my old house (60's) boxes are pretty small.
The only problem with these items is that they work great except for one. As long as the wire is straight, they fit well and hold well. The wire nuts haven't been used since I bought them because I find that they're really versatile. These are excellent wire connection devices, great for stranded wires especially when connected to solid wire. Installations are much more rapid and easier. I would definitely buy them Check the wiring just to make sure they're in good shape. The wires have come out a couple of times already, so make sure they're in good shape.
If you have to work with 10AWG wire, the regular WAGO nuts aren't rated for this thickness. It is easy to work with because it is 10AWG wire which can be difficult.
The wire nuts are on their way out. All you need to do is plug it in. All you need to do is snap the ends of the wire into a small block. It is no longer necessary to twist the wires, screw on the caps, and wrap the wires.
