Push nozzle the “Alu-Plus” syringe first into the circular
entry and then into the square conductor entry hole the
WAGO Lighting Connector. Filling quickly performed selected
WAGO connectors and terminal blocks (see pictures).

For each conductor entry: Insert nozzle the “Alu-Plus”
syringe every open conductor entry hole (one after the
other).com

Technical Information
“Alu-Plus” Contact Paste
Terminating Aluminum Conductors
WAGO spring clamp terminal blocks are suit-
able for solid aluminum conductors to
4 mm²/12 AWG WAGO “Alu-Plus” Contact
Paste used for termination.
WAGO “Alu-Plus” the syringe offers higher degree of
reliability and cleanliness when terminating solid alumi-
num conductors.
• Prevents fresh oxidation the clamping
point.
• Prevents electrolytic corrosion between
aluminum and copper conductors (in the
same terminal block).
“Alu-Plus” Contact Paste Advantages:
• Automatically destroys the oxide film during
clamping.
Using terminal blocks with CAGE CLAMP®
Spring Pressure Connection Technology,
aluminum conductors must first cleaned
with blade and then immediately be
inserted into the clamping units filled with
“Alu-Plus” Contact Paste.
1 Aluminum conductors per IEC 61545 standard, Class B,
“Alloy 1370” with 180 N/mm² tensile strength and 1
… elongation
Standard values: 180 MPa tensile strength, 4%
elongation (per 615.
It also possible apply WAGO “Alu-Plus”
additionally the whole surface the alu-
minum conductor before termination.
Please note that the nominal currents must

the aluminum conductors:

• Provides long-term protection against cor-
rosion.
Note: Not suitable for higher temperature applications!
