In accordance with DIN VDE 0611, Part 4,
02.9, multi-level distribution
rail-mount terminal blocks must dimen-
sioned that single (solid, stranded or
fine-stranded) conductor the nominal
cross section can connected each ter-
minal point.
Ferruled conductor cross sections specified
for individual products are based WAGO’s
Variocrimp square crimping technology.91, Section 3.
One Conductor per Clamping Unit
A number DIN VDE, EN, IEC directives
mandate recommend that only one con-
ductor must connected per clamping unit.1 1/0 9.
• Each conductor clamped independently.1.48

As with solid copper conductors, the fine
strands are crimped into dense inner core.1 3/0 12.33

The most common way branching one
conductor into two three conductors., directly connecting conduc-

WAGO principle the basis for number of
other technical and economic advantages:

removed without affecting previously con-

Gas-tight, crimped twin ferrules may used,

Crimping prevents ingress aggressive

ductor bundle along the individual strands
and deposit between individual strands and
the clamping point.1) requires that:
Clamping units must able connect
unprepared conductors.3

Other VDE, and IEC specifications also
recommend the connection only one con-
ductor per clamping unit, unless the clamping
unit specifically tested and approved for
the connection several conductors, for
example:
