| Subject: | WAGO Connectors in OBAM Aircraft? |
Anyone have an opinion (preferably with some personal experience) about
using WAGO connectors on OBAM aircraft?
They=99re UL certified now for higher voltage work, but I=99m w
ondering if they
might be a safe and convenient solution for some of those connections in an
aircraft that may need to be disconnected at some point in the future.
Seems like they might be a good alternative for things that need multiple
connections to one point (Nav lights, etc.)
I know some of us are very resistant to anything new, but these things have
been used for decades in Europe, and I wondered if anyone has any reason
one might not want to use them in low amperage connections, as most of our
are.
They=99re rated at 20Amps, and I=99ve seen them tested online a
t 60 without
causing any temp rise high enough to concern me.
What do you all think?
Ron

I used them where I wanted to be able to disconnect gauges, nothing mission
critical.
Just seemed to be an easy solution
