WAGO 285-135 2-Conductor Through Terminal Block, 35 mm², CAGE CLAMP, Gray

This WAGO 285-135 through terminal block delivers a robust and reliable wiring solution for demanding industrial applications. Engineered for 2-conductor through wiring with a 35 mm² rated cross-section, it provides a secure, maintenance-free connection for solid and fine-stranded conductors up to 50 mm². The CAGE CLAMP® connection technology ensures vibration-proof, corrosion-resistant terminations, making it an ideal choice for control cabinets, machinery, and power distribution systems.

Advantages

The CAGE CLAMP® mechanism offers fast, tool-free wiring, reducing installation time and labor costs. Its compact design saves valuable DIN-rail space, while the polyamide insulation provides excellent electrical and thermal performance. With a rated voltage of 1000 V and a rated current of 125 A, this terminal block handles high-power circuits with ease. It is also approved for Ex e applications (rated current 100 A) and meets stringent international standards, ensuring safety and compliance in hazardous environments.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, use a screwdriver with a blade width of 0.6 x 3.5 mm for actuating the CAGE CLAMP®. Ensure the conductor is stripped to the specified length (28–30 mm) and inserted fully until it stops. This terminal block is suitable for use with copper conductors only. For Ex e applications, follow the specific installation guidelines.
