The WAGO end and intermediate plate type 282-325 is a component for connection technology in industry, specifically for use in terminal block systems. It serves as a mechanical cover and separator between individual terminal blocks or at the end of a terminal row. The plate is 2.5 mm thick and gray in color, allowing it to be integrated visually and functionally into standardized control panels. It is used in electrical installations and machine building, where proper end or intermediate covering of terminal rows is required.

End and intermediate plate

The plate performs the function of covering exposed terminal ends or gaps in a terminal row. This creates a clean, closed appearance of the control panel and increases the mechanical stability of the installation. The gray color corresponds to the standard for industrial control panels and enables uniform design. The thickness of 2.5 mm ensures sufficient strength to prevent deformation of the plate during installation and operation.

Application areas

The end and intermediate plate 282-325 is used in control panels, distribution boxes, and control cabinets where terminal blocks are mounted. It is particularly suitable for installations where visual separation between individual terminal blocks or end covering of a row is required. The plate is used in electrical installations, machine building, and automation technology, where proper and safe mounting of terminal rows is essential.

Functions and equipment in detail

The plate is designed as a flat, rectangular component and fits into the standard mounting sockets of WAGO terminal blocks. It is inserted into the terminal row without additional fastening elements, being held in place by the mechanical guidance of the terminals themselves. The gray color and thickness of 2.5 mm are structurally defined to ensure uniform appearance and mechanical stability. The plate is not designed for electrical functions, but is purely mechanical and optical in effect.

Technology explained simply

The end and intermediate plate 282-325 is not an electrically conductive component, but serves exclusively for mechanical end or separation functions. It is inserted into the mounting sockets of the terminal blocks, where it is held by the shape of the sockets. The thickness of 2.5 mm ensures that the plate is not bent or damaged by mounting forces. The gray color is standardized and matches the color scheme of industrial control panels.

Compatibility and accessories

The plate is specifically designed for use with WAGO terminal blocks. It fits into the mounting sockets of terminal rows and is used as an end or intermediate plate. Compatibility is limited to the WAGO product family, with exact fit ensured by the dimensions of the mounting sockets. There are no specific accessories that must be combined with this plate; it is inserted directly into the terminal row.

Installation and mounting

Mounting is done by simply inserting the plate into the mounting sockets of the terminal blocks. No additional fastening elements such as screws or clips are required. The plate is placed either at the end of a terminal row to cover exposed ends or between individual terminal blocks to create a visual separation. Mounting is done without tools and is therefore quick and easy to perform.

Advantages in operation

The use of the end and intermediate plate 282-325 improves the visual quality and mechanical stability of control panels. It prevents dust or foreign objects from entering the terminal rows and protects terminal ends from mechanical damage. The simple tool-free mounting reduces installation time. The gray color and thickness of 2.5 mm ensure a uniform and professional finish of the control panel.
