Ideal 30-342 Wing Twist-on Wire Connector 600V 50 Pack

Product Description

The IDEAL 30-342 is a wing-style twist-on wire connector rated for 600 volts and a maximum operating temperature of 221 degrees F. Designed for making secure, insulated splices in copper wiring, this gray connector features a flame-retardant shell that resists ignition in the event of a fault. The wing tabs on either side allow technicians to apply firm, consistent torque by hand without additional tools. Each package contains 50 connectors. This connector is suitable for use with conductors at a minimum wire gauge of 3 AWG and is intended for installation by licensed electricians and qualified electrical trades.

The IDEAL 30-342 is used in residential, commercial, and light industrial electrical wiring applications. Common install scenarios include panel wiring, junction box splices, fixture connections, and device rough-in work. The gray color coding helps technicians quickly identify wire size compatibility on the job. The 50-count package is well suited to production electrical work, new construction, and service calls requiring multiple splices in a single visit.

Key Features

• Wing tabs allow hand-tight installation without additional tools
• Flame-retardant shell reduces fire propagation risk at the splice point
• Rated for 600 volts, suitable for standard branch circuit wiring
• Maximum operating temperature of 221 degrees F
• Gray color identifies minimum compatible wire size of 3 AWG
• Meets UL Listed 486C, CSA C22.2 No. 188, CE, RoHS, and Federal Specification W-S-610E standards

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and general-use twist-on connector for copper conductors at a minimum size of 3 AWG in standard 600-volt branch circuit wiring applications.

Installation Notes

Installation must be performed by a qualified electrician in accordance with applicable NEC requirements and local electrical codes. De-energize the circuit at the breaker and verify zero voltage with a meter before making any splice connections. Strip conductors to the recommended length, hold conductors together, and drive the connector clockwise until firm resistance is felt. Do not use on aluminum conductors unless the connector is specifically rated for aluminum-to-copper connections.
