The WAGO end and intermediate plate type 782-317 is a component for connection technology in industrial electrical installations. It serves as a cover and separator for terminal blocks of the 782 and 784 series, particularly for models 782-601/604/607/613 and 784-601/604/607/613. The plate is 1.5 mm thick and orange in colour, which distinguishes it visually from other components and aids in better identification during installation. It is used to close the ends of a terminal block row or to separate individual terminals within a row, thereby achieving a clear structuring of connection points.
Applications
The end and intermediate plate 782-317 is designed for use in industrial electrical systems where structured and clear wiring is required. It is frequently used in enclosures, control systems or distributors to optimise the arrangement of terminal block rows. The orange colour supports visual differentiation of various functions or cable types, which is beneficial for maintenance and servicing. The plate is designed for use with the specified terminal block models, which are typically used in automation technology, machine building or building automation.
Functions and equipment in detail
The plate serves two main functions: firstly, it acts as an end plate to cover the ends of a terminal block row, ensuring a neat visual finish. Secondly, it can be used as an intermediate plate to separate individual terminals within a row. This prevents unintended contact between adjacent conductors and improves the safety of the installation. The thickness of 1.5 mm ensures sufficient mechanical stability to securely insert and fix the plate into the terminal block row. The orange colour is not only visually striking but also serves as identification according to common practice in electrical installations.
Technology explained simply
The end and intermediate plate 782-317 is made of a robust plastic material suitable for use in industrial environments. The thickness of 1.5 mm ensures sufficient strength to prevent deformation during installation and operation. The orange colour is a visual feature that aids in identifying the function. The plate is inserted into the corresponding terminal block rows, where its shape and dimensions match the specified terminal block models. Installation requires no additional fastening elements – it is simply slid into the designated guides of the terminal block row and held securely by form-fit.
Compatibility and accessories
The plate is specifically designed for terminal block models 782-601/604/607/613 and 784-601/604/607/613. These models belong to the series of terminal blocks from WAGO and are widely used in industrial electrical installations. Compatibility is ensured by the precise fit and dimensions. The plate is supplied as a single unit and can be used multiple times within a terminal block row as needed to create separations or end caps.
Installation and mounting
Mounting the end and intermediate plate requires no tools. The plate is simply inserted into the designated guides of the terminal block row. The form-fit connection ensures that the plate sits securely and will not accidentally fall out. Installation takes place after the terminal blocks have been mounted in the enclosure door or distributor panel. The plate can be placed at any position along the row to create ends or separations. The orange colour aids orientation during installation and during subsequent maintenance work.

Advantages in operation
Using the end and intermediate plate 782-317 improves the clarity and safety of a terminal block row. The clear visual distinction provided by the orange colour facilitates identification of functions and wiring, speeding up maintenance and fault diagnosis. The mechanical stability provided by the 1.5 mm thickness ensures that the plate does not slip out of the row even under mechanical stress or vibrations. The simple tool-free installation reduces installation effort and shortens installation time. Compatibility with the specified terminal block models ensures secure and reliable integration into existing systems.
