Overcurrent Handling
:
• Current exceeding rating (e.g., 15A for 4-core): Derate or replace with high-current model
Poor Contact Handling
:
• Caused by insufficient torque/contact oxidation: Re-tighten / clean contacts
• Ensure reliable electrical connection
Wire Gauge Matching
:
• Undersized wire (e.g., 0.5mm² for 13A): Match recommended gauge (1.5mm² for 13A)
Multi-Core Full Load
:
• All cores at full load: Derate usage or select 5-core high-current version
• Avoid overload of connector core pins
Technical Note: Compliance with current rating, wire gauge matching and proper contact maintenance is critical to prevent overheating, contact damage and electrical failure of connectors in industrial applications.
