WAGO 285-159 Through-Panel Mount Terminal Block, 1-Pole, 16 mm², 1000 V, Gray

The WAGO 285-159 is a compact, single-pole through-panel mount terminal block designed for reliable and maintenance-free electrical connections. With a rated voltage of 1000 V and a rated current of 76 A, it is suitable for demanding industrial applications. The CAGE CLAMP® connection technology ensures fast, vibration-proof, and gas-tight connections for solid and fine-stranded conductors up to 16 mm² (6 AWG).

Advantages

• CAGE CLAMP® spring pressure connection technology for tool-free, maintenance-free wiring
• Compact design saves space in control cabinets and junction boxes
• High rated voltage (1000 V) and impulse voltage (8 kV) for safety in harsh environments
• Polyamide (PA 66) housing with UL94 V-0 flammability rating for fire resistance
• Through-panel mounting allows easy installation on panels with thickness 1–6 mm
