Insulation
The article WAGO 2002-405 is an insulated comb bridge in 5-way configuration, specifically designed for use in industrial electrical engineering. It serves for the safe and reliable connection of multiple conductors at a common connection point, with the insulation of individual contacts ensuring electrical separation between the connected conductors. The component is finished in light grey, enabling clear visual distinction within control panels. The rated current is 25 A, making it suitable for a wide range of applications in electrical installations.
Comb bridge are standard components for parallel connection of conductors in control panels and distributors. The WAGO 2002-405 is designed as a 5-way bridge, meaning five separate conductors can be connected at a common connection point. The insulation of contacts prevents unintended electrical connections between individual conductors, which is particularly advantageous when dealing with different potentials or when used in circuits with different switching states. The light grey colour serves visual identification and is typical for components in industrial connection technology.
Functions and equipment in detail
The comb bridge enables quick and secure installation of multiple conductors without additional tools. The construction is designed so that conductors are placed into designated contact chambers and secured by a clamping mechanism. The insulation of contacts ensures that no unintended short circuits occur between connected conductors. The 5-way configuration provides sufficient connection points for typical distribution tasks in control panels, such as supplying multiple consumers from a common circuit.
Technology explained simply
The technology of the comb bridge is based on a modular terminal system, where conductors are inserted into designated openings and secured by spring force or a screw mechanism. Insulation is achieved through a plastic cover that separates individual contacts. The light grey colour is a visual feature that helps quickly identify the bridge type during installation and maintenance. The rated current of 25 A is the maximum current load the bridge can sustain continuously without overheating or loss of function.
Compatibility and accessories
The WAGO 2002-405 is designed for use in standard control panels and distributors equipped with strip terminals. It is compatible with other components in the WAGO product family, particularly with strip terminals having the same module width. Use in combination with other comb bridges or connection elements is possible, provided mechanical dimensions match.
Mounting and installation
Installation is done by inserting the comb bridge into designated rails or terminal strips in a control panel. Conductors are placed one by one into individual contact chambers and secured by the clamping mechanism. The insulation of contacts requires no additional measures for electrical separation. Mounting is tool-free, although the exact installation instructions should correspond to the specific application context.
Advantages in operation
Using the WAGO 2002-405 provides high reliability when connecting multiple conductors. The insulation of contacts prevents unintended electrical connections, increasing safety. The 5-way configuration allows for a compact and clear arrangement in control panels. The light grey colour facilitates identification and maintenance. The rated current load of 25 A is sufficient for many industrial applications and ensures stable power supply.
