## Note: 

## Terminating Aluminum Conductors 

WAGO spring clamp terminal blocks are suitable for solid aluminum conductors up to 4 mm²/12 AWG if WAGO “Alu-Plus” Contact Paste is used for termination. 

“Alu-Plus” Contact Paste Advantages: 

Automatically destroys the oxide film during clamping. 

Prevents fresh oxidation at the clamping point. 

Prevents electrolytic corrosion between aluminum and copper conductors (in the same terminal block). 

Provides long-term protection against corrosion. 

Using terminal blocks with CAGE CLAMP® Spring Pressure Connection Technology, aluminum conductors must first be cleaned with a blade and then immediately be inserted into the clamping units filled with “Alu-Plus” Contact Paste. 

It is also possible to apply WAGO “Alu-Plus” additionally on the whole surface of the aluminum conductor before termination. 

Please note that the nominal currents must be adapted to the reduced conductivity of the aluminum conductors: 2.5 mm² (14 AWG) = 16 A 4 mm² (12 AWG) = 22 A
