1-282836-8 Terminal Block Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The 1-282836-8 is a 17-position wire-to-board terminal block manufactured by TE Connectivity AMP Connectors. This component features a horizontal mating orientation with 0.197" (5.00mm) pitch spacing and through-hole mounting on printed circuit boards. The terminal block accommodates wire gauges from 16 to 30 AWG with screw-based rising cage clamp termination.

The 1-282836-8 carries an obsolete product status. Identifying equivalent substitute parts ensures design continuity and maintains supply chain reliability for applications requiring this terminal block configuration.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the 1-282836-8 is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

Mandatory Matching Parameters:

• 17 positions per level
• 0.197" (5.00mm) pitch spacing
• Horizontal with board mating orientation
• Through-hole mounting configuration
• Screw-based rising cage clamp wire termination
• 13.5 A current rating
• 300 V voltage rating
• Polyamide (PA66) housing material

Allowable Variations:

• Wire gauge range: The substitute may accommodate a different wire gauge range provided it includes the original specification range or extends it
• Screw torque specification: Variations in torque values are acceptable if the screw thread type remains compatible
• Contact and clamp material composition: Substitutes may use alternative plating materials while maintaining electrical performance
• Operating temperature range: Substitutes with defined operating temperature ranges are acceptable
• Color: Housing color variations do not affect functional substitution
• RoHS compliance status: Active products with RoHS compliance are preferred for new designs

The ESLM17100 manufactured by Amphenol PCD meets all mandatory matching parameters and qualifies as a direct substitute for the 1-282836-8.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The ESLM17100 is the qualified substitute for the obsolete 1-282836-8. Selection of this substitute is based on the following engineering criteria:

Product Status Consideration: The 1-282836-8 carries obsolete status, making continued procurement from original inventory unsustainable. The ESLM17100 maintains active product status with established supply chain availability.

Compliance and Certification: The ESLM17100 is RoHS compliant, meeting current regulatory requirements for electronic components in restricted substance directives. The original 1-282836-8 carries "Not applicable" RoHS status, reflecting its obsolete classification.

Functional Equivalence: Both components share identical electrical ratings (13.5 A, 300 V), mechanical configuration (17 positions, 5.00mm pitch, through-hole mounting), and termination method (screw-based rising cage clamp). The ESLM17100 accommodates wire gauges from 14-30 AWG, which encompasses the original 16-30 AWG specification.

Environmental Specifications: The ESLM17100 provides defined operating temperature range (-40°C to 110°C), whereas the original part does not specify this parameter. Both components maintain MSL 1 (Unlimited) moisture sensitivity classification.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the ESLM17100 directly replace the 1-282836-8 in existing designs?

A: Yes. The ESLM17100 meets all mandatory electrical and mechanical parameters. Both components feature identical pitch spacing (5.00mm), position count (17), current rating (13.5 A), voltage rating (300 V), mounting type (through-hole), and wire termination method (screw-based rising cage clamp). Physical board layout compatibility is maintained.

Q: What is the significance of the wire gauge difference (16-30 AWG vs. 14-30 AWG)?

A: The ESLM17100 accommodates a broader wire gauge range by including 14 and 15 AWG wires. This represents an extension of the original specification rather than a restriction. Applications using 16-30 AWG wires operate within both specifications.

Q: Does the color difference (green vs. black) affect substitution?

A: No. Housing color is a cosmetic parameter that does not affect electrical performance, mechanical fit, or functional operation. Color selection may be determined by application-specific requirements or manufacturing standards.

Q: What is the impact of RoHS compliance on substitution?

A: The ESLM17100 is RoHS compliant, meeting current regulatory requirements for restricted substances. For new designs and applications subject to RoHS directives, the ESLM17100 is the appropriate selection. The original 1-282836-8 carries "Not applicable" status due to its obsolete classification.

Q: Are there differences in screw torque specifications between the two parts?

A: Yes. The 1-282836-8 specifies 0.68 Nm (6 Lb-In) torque with M3 screw thread. The ESLM17100 specifies 0.5 Nm (4.4 Lb-In) torque. Both values fall within acceptable ranges for screw-based terminal block termination. Assembly procedures should reference the specific torque value for each component.

Q: What packaging format is available for the ESLM17100?

A: The ESLM17100 is supplied in tray packaging. The original 1-282836-8 packaging format is not specified in available documentation.

Q: Are both components suitable for PCB through-hole assembly?

A: Yes. Both the 1-282836-8 and ESLM17100 are designed for through-hole mounting on printed circuit boards with 0.197" (5.00mm) pitch spacing. PCB footprint design remains consistent between the two components.
