222-413 | WAGO Lever-Nuts® | Original Lever-Operated Splicing Connector | for Solid and Stranded Conductors | 3-Conductor with Operating levers | 28-12 AWG | Gray housing | [Box of 50 Pieces]

I was introduced to WAGO products at work, where we manufacture custom training equipment for airlines and the military. WAGO is a european company that specializes in high-quality, high-reliability electrical connection products. In the past few years, WAGO has begun marketing some of their products to consumers, and their line of LEVER-NUTS connectors is one of those products. These are also sold to industrial and professional customers -- they aren't some cheapie knock-off. These connectors are amazing -- with one device you can reliably join wire from 22 gauge to 12 gauge, solid or stranded, mix-and-match. And the connections are SOLID -- these use a variety of WAGO's "cage-clamp" connector that uses spring-loaded contacts and geometry to create a connection that actually tightens under vibration and tension, rather than loosening and failing like screw connections, wire-nuts and IDC connectors. If you ever have to join wires that you can't easily solder, these connectors are the next best thing -- or perhaps it's a tie. To operate, you pull the orange lever away from the body to 90 degrees, insert the (stripped) wire, and snap the lever back. You're done. The levers can be a little stiff the first time you operating them, but have faith -- they are very strong polymer. Each port in these connectors is reusable without degradation, and each port can (although not recommended) be used with multiple (small) wires at the same time. They should be the same size and type (solid vs stranded) however, and not twisted together.

(In case it doesn't specify, my review is for the 3-hole version, but I would assume the other ones work just as wonderfully) - - Honestly these things are a great idea and work flawlessly. The only "problem" i had was due to my own ignorance in how to use them - i thought i only had to lift the levers until they were "loose" to open the connector, but quickly found out that you have to flip the lever all the way up (until it sort of clicks into place, straight up) to actually do so. Watch your fingers when closing a lever, as they close with a decent amount of force. Not going to result in injury by any means at all, but they will give your finger a good flick. Anyway these things hold onto a wide range of wire gauges and work flawlessly with both solid and stranded wires. And when I say "hold onto" i mean they really aren't letting that wire go unless you're really, really trying. Another nice/unexpected feature is the small slot in the top of the connector for inserting a multimeter probe for testing/measurement. I wouldn't hesitate for a second to recommend these to anyone. ALSO i would absolutely recommend buying these official WAGO ones and not some "clone" product made by another company but made to look like it's a WAGO, as I've heard the unofficial versions have bad quality issues. *I PAID FULL PRICE FOR THESE AND MY REVIEW WAS NOT REQUESTED OR INFLUENCED IN ANY WAY!* wanted to clarify that :)

These were amazing. With some dielectric grease (3m silicone grease) they are even good for aluminum to copper (check your local code) . They are way easier and more secure than wire nuts. It saved me from a situation where the ground(old wiring) had a copper crimp for a pigtail and it was loose making a bad connection, aluminum wiring... Had to cut it out and it left very little wire to work with inside a box that already had a sleeve in it cause it was an inch back from the surface. Never would have gotten a wire nut in there, let alone one of those purple aluminum to copper ones. Got this in and securely set. They are so much faster to use and secure. Less exposed wire. Only 10 mm stripped. I'm never going back to twist on wire nuts. Buy these and the 2 lever in bulk, you won't regret it. If you aren't sure let me tell you it's worth it. They are smaller than a wire nut. They hold stronger. Just order them.

Ottimo sostituto di connessioni a vite, buoni per tutte le situazioni per collegare fino a tre fili. La leva assicura un contatto sicuro e duraturo con la semplicità di un click.

These are very good quality and quick do to any electrical install. it drastically reduces install time, as it is just a click to join cables. There is a top gap that easily allow you to measure current or to test if there is current.

Geht nichts über das Original. Ich habe schon viele Klemmverbinder ausprobiert, aber so gut wie diese waren bisher keine anderen. Wago ist zwar etwas teurer, als die Wettbewerber, aber es lohnt sich. Leichte Handhabung und sicheres verklemmen der Leitung. Was will man mehr?
