The WAGO 282-901 is a 2-wire passage terminal block designed for use in industrial electrical installations. It enables secure and reliable connection of two wires in a passage configuration, and can be mounted on support rails with dimensions 35 x 15 mm and 35 x 7.5 mm. The terminal block is finished in grey and features central labelling, allowing clear identification of connection points. The CAGE CLAMP® principle ensures an automatic, force-locked connection of the wire without additional tools, reducing installation time and improving contact quality.

Applications
This terminal block is suitable for use in enclosures, control systems, and distribution units where stable and durable wire connections are required. It is particularly suitable for applications in automation technology, machine and plant engineering, as well as in electrical installations. Use on standard support rails (TS 35) enables flexible integration into existing systems.

Functions and Equipment in Detail
The 2-wire passage terminal block 282-901 supports cross-sections from 0.2 to 6 mm², covering a wide range of wires from fine signal lines to heavier power lines. The central labelling facilitates identification of connections, especially in complex circuits. The CAGE CLAMP® system ensures a secure connection through mechanical interlocking of the wire with the terminal body, creating a reliable electrical contact. The terminal block is designed for front wiring, allowing installation from the front and improving accessibility for maintenance and inspection.

Technology Explained Simply
The CAGE CLAMP® principle operates without tools: the wire is simply inserted into the terminal block, where an integrated clamping mechanism automatically secures it. The terminal block is designed for a maximum cross-sectional area of 6 mm², enabling high current load capacity. The width of the terminal block is 8 mm, allowing compact placement on the support rail. The grey finish is standard for electrical components in industrial environments and supports visual differentiation of components.

Compatibility and Accessories
The terminal block is designed for support rails with dimensions 35 x 15 mm and 35 x 7.5 mm, enabling universal use in standard control systems. Compatible accessories include profile carriers, steel support rails, labelling systems such as WMB inline labels, reduction bridges, cross bridges, as well as partition panels and end plates. These components support structured and orderly installation and labelling of control systems. Combining with other WAGO components allows modular expansion of the system.

Installation and Mounting
Mounting is done by simply snapping the terminal block onto the support rail. Front wiring allows wires to be inserted from the front, enabling quick and tool-free installation. The terminal block is designed for secure fixation on the support rail, preventing shifting or loosening during operation. The central labelling simplifies wire assignment during installation.

Operational Advantages
The terminal block provides high contact quality through the CAGE CLAMP® system, resulting in reduced contact heating and lower resistance. The simple, tool-free installation reduces installation time and effort. Use of standard support rails ensures high compatibility with existing systems. The grey colour and central labelling support clear and organised structuring of the control system.
