Overview
The WAGO 280-658/281-413 component terminal block is a DIN-rail mounted electrical connector designed for industrial automation, control systems, and signal distribution applications. This 4-conductor terminal features an integrated red LED indicator powered at 24 VDC, making it ideal for applications where visual feedback of signal presence or circuit status is required. Built by WAGO—a leading German manufacturer of electrical interconnection solutions—this terminal block combines reliability with ease of installation.
Key Features
- 4-conductor design with feed-through capability for flexible circuit routing
- Integrated red LED indicator (24 VDC) provides clear visual status feedback
- CAGE CLAMP® connection technology eliminates the need for ferrules or special preparation; simply insert stripped conductor (8–9 mm strip length)
- Compact 5 mm width for space-efficient DIN-rail mounting on 35 × 15 and 35 × 7.5 rails
- Gray polyamide (PA66) housing ensures durability and electrical insulation
- Rated for 0.08–2.5 mm² conductor cross-section (14–28 AWG equivalent); supports solid, stranded, and fine-stranded wire
