WAGO’s new 2773 Series WALLNUTS® Splicing Connectors.
WAGO continues to push the boundaries in the electrical and lighting industries with the introduction of the 2773 Series WALLNUTS® Splicing Connectors. Similar to its predecessor, the 773, WAGO’s 2773 provides a compact, easy, and reliable connection for a variety of different wire sizes and types. But there are some obvious and subtle differences in this new connector. “The biggest difference between the 773 and 2773 is the size. Our 2773 is 30% smaller than our 773 and 45% smaller than our competitor,” says Nick Holzman, WAGO’s Product Manager for Electrical Splicing Connectors. “Ultimately, this means more connectors can fit in a junction box or small space without having to worry about sacrificing the reliability of the connection.” Aside from its compact design, another big change comes with the low insertion force. With the slogan, “Your Wrists Will Thank Us,” the 2773 promotes PUSHWIRE® connection technology without having to twist together wires as is typical of twist-type connectors. Not only are the insertion forces low, but WAGO also ensures higher than standard retention forces. This is all thanks to its innovative spring design — the conductor termination comes with the highest degree of safety and reliability. “Using the 2773 makes every project easier, from your professional electrical installer to your weekend DIYer,” shares Holzman. “We take the guesswork out of the wire gauge type and how many wires can be inserted into the connector. Nobody has to wonder if the twist-type connector is effectively twisted or whether it has been rated to accept a certain number of wires. Just push the wire in and you’re done.” One of the more subtle changes with the 2773 series is the number of variants available. Both the 773 and 2773 come with 2, 4, 6, and 8-conductor versions. However, the 2773 has added a 3 and 5-wire variant to expand the PUSHWIRE® connector portfolio to accommodate common uses in the field.

The transparent housing has also been upgraded to provide users with a clearer visual, ensuring that the wire has been inserted completely and correctly. The strip length gauge along with the transparent housing window provides assurance that there is proper wire termination every time. These versatile, space-saving, reliable 2773 WALLNUTS® are the compact and clear choice for any PUSHWIRE® connection and yet another reason why WAGO continues to be an innovative leader in wire and splicing connection technology. Features of the 2773 Series WALLNUTS® • It’s 30% smaller, allowing for more connections in junction boxes or small spaces • Convenient wiring, thanks to an extremely compact design • Push-in termination with up to eight solid and stranded conductors • Checks the conductor’s position at a glance, thanks to a highly transparent housing • Reliable connection due to a low insertion force and high pull-out forces
