257-856 Description

Short technical summary and product information.

This is a 1-pole stackable PCB terminal block from Wago's 257 Series. It uses CAGE CLAMP connection technology with push-button actuation for quick and easy wire termination without tools. The terminal block accepts wire sizes from 12 to 28 AWG (0.08 to 2.5 mm²) with a strip length of 5 to 6 mm.

 

Electrical ratings include 15 A current (IEC/EN 60664-1, Use group B) and voltage ratings of 300 V (UL/CSA Use group B/D) and 400 V (IEC/EN 60664-1, Pollution degree 3, Overvoltage category III). The pitch is 7.5/7.62 mm, allowing compatibility with both metric and imperial board layouts.

 

The terminal block is through-hole (THT) mounted and mates horizontally with the board. Its dimensions are 10.3 mm width, 24.2 mm height, and 14.2 mm depth. The orange housing is stackable, enabling multiple poles to be combined as needed. The contact surfaces are tin-coated.

 

This component is suitable for wire-to-board applications in industrial control, building automation, and other demanding environments requiring reliable, maintenance-free connections.
