What Is the WAGO 2773 Series Used For?
What is the WAGO 2773 Series used for? These compact push-wire connectors are designed for making fast and secure electrical connections where space is limited.
They are commonly used inside suitable junction boxes, enclosures and lighting connections to join solid or stranded conductors without screws or levers.
How Does the WAGO 2773 Series Work?
The conductor is stripped to the correct length and pushed directly into the connector. An internal spring clamp grips the conductor and holds it securely in position.
No screwdriver is needed, helping installers complete connections quickly while keeping the wiring compact and tidy.
Where Can WAGO 2773 Connectors Be Used?
Depending on the selected connector, the WAGO 2773 Series may be used for:
- Joining conductors inside junction boxes
- Extending suitable electrical cables
- Connecting lighting circuits
- Commoning several conductors
- Making connections inside confined enclosures
- Repairing suitable conductors with an inline connector
The exact conductor size and type should always be checked against the individual product specification.
Compact Push-Wire Design
One of the main benefits of the WAGO 2773 Series is its compact size. The connectors take up less room than many traditional connection methods, making them particularly useful where enclosure space is restricted.
Different versions are available for joining different numbers of conductors.
Transparent Housing
The transparent housing allows the installer to see whether the conductor has been inserted correctly.
It also makes it easier to check that:
- The conductor has reached the correct position
- The insulation has been stripped to the correct length
- No excess bare copper is visible
- The conductor is fully seated inside the connector
Which Conductors Are Suitable?
The WAGO 2773 Series is designed for specific solid and stranded conductor types. Selected models can accept conductors up to 4 mm².
However, not every connector in the range accepts the same conductor sizes or types. Flexible or fine-stranded conductors may require a different WAGO connector, such as a suitable lever-operated model.
Always check the product markings and manufacturer’s specification before installation.
WAGO 2773 or WAGO Lever Connectors?
WAGO 2773 connectors use push-wire technology. The conductor is pushed directly into the connector and held by the internal spring clamp.
WAGO lever connectors use a lever to open and close the connection point. They may be more suitable where flexible conductors are being used or where the connection may need to be opened again later.
The correct connector depends on the conductor type, size and installation requirements.
Installation Checks
Before using a WAGO 2773 connector, confirm:
- The conductor type is compatible
- The conductor size is within the permitted range
- The insulation is stripped to the correct length
- The conductor is fully inserted
- No bare copper remains exposed
- The connector is installed in a suitable enclosure where required
