Troubleshooting
Wire connection is loose.
Re-strip the wire to the correct length, fully insert it into the connector, and close the lever firmly.
Connector lever is difficult to open or close.
Ensure no wires are obstructing the lever movement. Replace the connector if the lever is damaged.
The wire won't fit into the connector.
Check the wire gauge to ensure it is within the specified range (0.08mm² to 4mm²). Ensure the wire insulation is stripped to the correct length.
The connector is not making a proper electrical contact.
Check if the wire is fully inserted and the lever is properly closed. Replace the connector if the internal contacts are damaged or corroded.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
- Preparation: Ensure the power is OFF before working with any electrical wiring. Gather your Wago connectors and the wires you intend to connect.
- Wire Stripping: Strip the wire insulation to the recommended length (typically 9-11mm) using a wire stripper.
- Wire Insertion: Open the lever on the Wago connector. Insert the stripped wire fully into the designated entry port.
- Lever Closure: Close the lever to secure the wire. Ensure the wire is firmly held.
- Compatibility: These connectors are compatible with solid and stranded core wires, ranging from 0.08mm² to 4mm² (12AWG to 28AWG).
- Care: Avoid excessive force when opening or closing the levers. Store connectors in a dry environment. Inspect the connectors regularly for any signs of damage or wear. Do not exceed the voltage rating of 400V.
