Product Information
Full details
The Wieland RST20i3 Series Circular Connector is designed for building installations, offering a robust and reliable 3-pole female cable mount solution. Its key benefit is a secure, mechanically coded connection system that ensures correct polarity and simplifies installation, minimizing errors. A potential caveat is its specific cable size accommodation (10-14mm), requiring users to verify compatibility. This connector features a screw connection, IP68 rating, and supports solid and flexible wires from 0.75 to 6mm² at 20A and 250V.

Extended Product Information
FAQs
What is the maximum cable diameter this connector can accommodate?
The RST20i3 series cable connector is designed for cable diameters ranging from 10mm to 14mm.
What type of wires can be used with this connector?
This connector accepts both solid and flexible wires with a cross-sectional area between 0.75mm² and 6mm².
What does IP68 rating mean for this connector?
IP68 means the connector is dust-tight and protected against continuous immersion in water under conditions specified by the manufacturer, offering a high level of environmental protection.
Is this connector suitable for outdoor use?
Yes, due to its IP68 rating, it is well-suited for outdoor applications where exposure to moisture and dust is expected.
How does the mechanical coding prevent incorrect connections?
The connector has specific physical features that only allow it to be mated with its corresponding male connector of the correct polarity, preventing accidental cross-wiring.
What is the voltage and current rating of the RST20i3 connector?
The connector is rated for a maximum voltage of 250V and a maximum current of 20A.
Can I use this connector with different brands of mating connectors?
It is highly recommended to use only Wieland RST20i3 series mating connectors to ensure proper fit, function, and safety. Compatibility with other brands is not guaranteed.
Troubleshooting
Connector does not power the connected device.
Verify that the connection is secure on both ends. Check wire connections within the screw terminals. Ensure the mating connector is properly engaged and functional. Confirm that the power source is active and within the connector's voltage/current ratings.
Difficulty mating connectors.
Ensure you are attempting to mate a female connector with a male connector of the same series (RST20i3). Check for any obstructions or debris in the connection interfaces. Verify that the mechanical coding aligns correctly.
Poor connection or intermittent power.
Re-inspect and tighten all screw connections to ensure firm contact. Check the wires for any damage or corrosion. Ensure the cable is properly seated within the connector housing.
Connector does not seal properly (IP rating compromised).
Confirm the correct cable diameter is used. Ensure the cable clamp is tightened correctly around the cable jacket. Inspect the sealing surfaces and O-rings for damage or debris.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- High level of protection with IP68 rating.
- Secure and error-proof connections due to mechanical coding.
- Versatile wire accommodation for both solid and flexible conductors.
- Durable construction suitable for building installations.
- Easy and quick installation process.
Cons
- Limited to specific cable diameters (10-14mm).
- Single color coding might require additional labeling for complex systems.
- Requires compatible mating connectors from the same series.
- Screw terminals may require more careful tightening than push-in connectors.
Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
- Ensure the cable diameter is within the specified range of 10-14mm.
- Strip the wire ends to the appropriate length for the screw terminals.
- Connect solid or flexible wires (0.75-6mm²) to the respective terminals, observing the L, N, PE markings.
- Tighten the screw connections securely but avoid overtightening.
- Attach the connector to the corresponding female or male counterpart, ensuring it clicks into place.
Compatibility:
- This is a female cable mount connector and requires a compatible male RST20i3 series connector for a complete connection.
- Ensure the voltage (250V) and current (20A) ratings of the connected system do not exceed the connector's specifications.
Care:
- To clean, disconnect the connector and use a dry or slightly damp cloth. Avoid using solvents or abrasive cleaners.
- Periodically inspect for any signs of damage or debris, especially if used in harsh environments. Ensure the sealing O-rings are intact.
