What is the difference between Wago 221 and 222?

The new Wago 221 series wiring connectors are 40% smaller than the 222 series, helping to further reduce space inside junction boxes. The compact, tool-less design is a great way of connecting cables. They are suitable for use with stranded and solid cables and are ideal for use in domestic or industrial wiring.

Are Wago 222 maintenance free?

Maintenance Free The Wago 222 and 773 Series terminal blocks are completely unlike screw terminals. They are not susceptible to loosening due to temperature cycling, vibration or conductor settling over time.

What are Wagos rated at?

Ratings up to 32 A/450 V and 105°C maximum continuous operating temperature allow the 221 Series Splicing Connectors to be used at ambient temperatures up to 85°C (T85), making them ideal for small and large loads.

Are Wagos fire rated?

The Nylon material WAGO use is suitable for a wide temperature range and is self-extinguishing in the event of fire (UL 94 Flammability rated V0).
