The WAGO 780-601 is a 2-wire pass-through terminal block designed for use in industrial electrical installations. It enables a secure and reliable connection of two conductors with a cross-section of up to 2.5 mm². The terminal block is finished in grey and features a central marking, allowing for clear identification of connection points. It is designed for mounting on standard support rails in formats 35 x 15 mm and 35 x 7.5 mm, ensuring universal application in enclosures and control systems. The connection technology is based on the CAGE CLAMP® principle, where the conductor is held by a spring-loaded clamp, enabling a stable and long-lasting connection without the need for additional tools.
Applications
This terminal block is suitable for applications in industrial electrical engineering, particularly in control and enclosure systems. It is commonly used in automation technology, manufacturing industry, and building automation, where reliable and maintenance-friendly connections of cables are required. Its compatibility with standard support rails allows for flexible integration into existing control panels.
Features and Equipment in Detail
The 780-601 offers a pass-through design, allowing current to flow through the terminal block, thereby establishing a direct connection between two conductors. The central marking facilitates identification of connection points, especially in complex circuits. The terminal block is rated for conductor cross-sections from 0.08 to 2.5 mm², covering a wide range of cable types. The CAGE CLAMP® technology ensures a secure connection without requiring additional tools for fastening.
Technology Explained Simply
The CAGE CLAMP® technology uses a spring-loaded clamp that automatically secures the conductor as soon as it is inserted into the terminal. The spring force ensures a stable electrical contact that remains intact even under vibration or temperature fluctuations. The terminal block is designed for use in enclosures, where high mechanical strength and electrical reliability are required. The grey finish is typical for industrial terminals and aids in visual differentiation within complex installations.
Compatibility and Accessories
The terminal block is compatible with support rails in formats 35 x 15 mm and 35 x 7.5 mm, which are standard in industrial electrical engineering. As accessories, various wire end ferrules are available, including models for 0.25 mm², 0.5 mm², 0.75 mm², and 1.5 mm², enabling clean and secure termination of conductor ends. Additionally, labelling systems such as WMB multilabels and inline tags are available to support clear identification of connection points. Blank modules and test adapter modules can be used to extend the functionality of the control panel.
Installation and Mounting
Mounting is achieved by simply snapping the terminal block into the support rail. The CAGE CLAMP® technology allows the conductor to be inserted without tools, with the spring force automatically securing the connection. The terminal block can be inserted into the rail in any order, enabling flexible arrangement within the control panel. The central marking aids orientation during installation and maintenance.
Operational Advantages
The terminal block offers high mechanical stability and electrical reliability, making it suitable for demanding industrial environments. The tool-free installation reduces installation time and minimizes the risk of incorrect connections. The use of wire end ferrules and labelling systems enables clean and organized wiring, simplifying maintenance and fault diagnosis. Compatibility with standard support rails ensures universal usability in various control panels.
