The 222-412 Lever-Nut is UL/CNL listed up to 600V/20A and can accommodate both solid and stranded conductors ranging in size from AWG #12-28 in the same unit.

Wago has added the 222-412 to the Lever-Nuts 222 series of compact connectors The 222-412 is a two-conductor splice that joins the three and five-conductor models in the Lever-Nuts family

The range is suited to terminating connections inside RVs, office buildings, power tools, electric motors and high-end vacuum cleaners.

"The two-conductor is ideally suited to increasingly compact and complex applications where space is at a premium and just a two-wire termination point is needed", said Marketing Manager, Dean Norton.

The 222-412 is UL/CNL listed up to 600V/20A and can accommodate both solid and stranded conductors ranging in size from AWG #12-28 in the same unit.

Cage Clamp termination technology provides fast, easy and maintenance-free connections and a maximum temperature rating of 105C ensures that the 222-412 will reliably meet the requirements for a wide range of applications.

The 222-412 protects users against electrical shocks and employs an integral test point for testing/troubleshooting a circuit.

Splicing with the 222-412 is a simple, tool-free process.

Users lift the orange lever, insert the stripped conductor and lower the lever.

"The ergonomics of the lever-actuated wire termination are superior to those of traditional twist-type connections and will prevent wrist strain while saving time", Norton explained.

"For instance, consider the effort Lever-Nuts can save on large-scale applications, such as typical mid-level RVs that can easily exceed 125 splices needed per unit".
