Features and Benefits
Features and Benefits |
N/A Twist Lock Wire Connectors may be used to make branch circuit or fixture wire connections on many combinations of solid and/or stranded wire. The spring inside is plated steel, and it conforms to the inside shape of the insulating shell. When the conductor is driven up into the connector the shell supports the spring. It is not necessary to twist the wires together before insertion - they are automatically twisted together by the connector in a secure connection with maximum contact. |
