Comment on Help identify a terminal type
thumdinger@lemmy.world 4 days agoThank you! Something concrete to go on. Is there a specific name these go by? I couldn’t find them by searching.
I think I have two issues to work through. I’m not sure I applied enough pressure to actuate the spring (access may be a limiting factor in-situ), and I was using an extremely fine gauge of wire. I doubt it would have the stiffness to push in.
Would a stalk lug work to provide added stiffness to the conductor, or does this terminal expect something malleable?
These are made by te connectivity, horrendous datasheets, but pretty good products. I’m more a Phoenix man myself but you work with what you’ve got in stock: www.digikey.com/en/products/detail/…/5872966
The drawings are found towards the bottom of that page, scroll way down to see “product drawings”.
I don’t think these care about malleability too much, they’ll pinch whatever you can fit into its maw.
Good luck, glad I could help 👍
That’s great. Thank you again!

The green and orange colors are quite typical of the phoenix contacts brand. It’s not a perfect match, but this model is very close: phoenixcontact.com/…/printed-circuit-board-termin…
