In recent years, China’s lighting industry has experienced rapid development in technological innovation and application expansion. Lighting products, especially those based on LED technology, have led global market trends due to their energy-saving, environmentally friendly, long lifespan, and high efficiency. As the world’s largest producer and exporter of LED lighting products, China accounts for over 75% of the global LED lighting market. Against this backdrop, WAGO has launched its new 873 series plug connectors, specifically designed for lighting fixtures, aiming to support the efficient development of the lighting industry with superior connection solutions.
1. Ultra-Wide Wiring Range
The WAGO 873 series covers AWG 22-18 (0.34-0.75mm²), with a maximum rated current of 3A, suitable for various lighting equipment wiring needs.

2. Advanced Spring Clamping Technology
The product utilizes PUSH WIRE® plug-in spring technology made of tin-plated copper alloy. The spring deforms due to the stiffness of the wire itself, clamping the wire in place. Tool-free direct connection of single-strand and tin-plated multi-strand wires is possible, and wires can be easily removed by rotating them. This offers strong compatibility and more efficient operation.

3. Minimalist Design, Easy Installation
The WAGO 873 series features a compact design: a single-channel structure and small size. The 2-pin model measures only 13×10×40mm. Both 2-pin and 3-pin models can pass through 1/2-inch (approximately 22mm) diameter knock-out holes, making them ideal for lighting ballast power supply scenarios and compliant with US standard recessed lighting standards.

4. One-Click Locking Design
The unique locking button design automatically locks the connection upon insertion, emitting a “click” sound to clearly indicate that the connection is complete, preventing accidental dislodgement and providing a reliable connection.

5. Anti-misinsertion structure
Featuring a plug-in structure with electric shock protection, the guide posts and guide grooves on both sides of the product effectively prevent reverse insertion, significantly improving installation efficiency and safety, making operation more worry-free.

6. Dual-point contact technology
The current-guiding clip and pins form a connection through dual-point contact, which is more stable and reliable than the single-point contact type with overlapping, and has a stronger ability to withstand surge current impacts.

7. Superior technology, safe and durable
The WAGO 873 series plug-in connector uses PA66 insulation material (fire rating UL94 V0), which can be used in environments with temperatures up to 105℃ for extended periods. It is certified by both UL 2459 and IEC/EN 61984, and has CE declaration, ensuring internationally recognized quality.
The new WAGO 873 series simplifies the original 2-in-4-out and 3-in-6-out designs to 2-in-2-out and 3-in-3-out designs, reducing product size while optimizing the wiring range, making it more suitable for the wiring requirements of modern lighting fixtures that primarily use LED light source technology. Excellent product design and technology have instilled safety and reliability into the product’s DNA, ensuring its future role in the lighting industry.

8. Wide Range of Applications
Whether for commercial lighting fixtures, OEM lighting installations, indoor decorative lighting, or supermarket lighting upgrades, WAGO’s new 873 series plug-in connectors provide efficient and secure connection solutions, truly making “connections more valuable.”
