  • Matching 225° free-hanging in-line plug wire entry orientation
  • Identical screw-clamping termination style with M2.5 screw size
  • Identical torque specification: 0.4-0.5 Nm (4.6-4.4 Lb-In)
  • Matching housing material (PBT) and contact material (copper alloy)
  • Identical operating temperature range: -50°C ~ 100°C
  • Identical flammability rating: UL94 V-0
  • Both parts are RoHS compliant and REACH unaffected

The 1946480000 represents an enhanced version with improved electrical ratings and expanded wire gauge compatibility, while maintaining full mechanical and functional compatibility with the original 1741860000 design.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The Weidmüller 1946480000 is the direct active equivalent for the obsolete 1741860000. Selection of the 1946480000 is supported by:

  • Active product status ensuring long-term availability and supply chain continuity
  • Full mechanical compatibility with identical pitch, position count, and mounting configuration
  • Enhanced electrical ratings (17.5A IEC, 15A UL) that exceed the original specification
  • Expanded wire gauge acceptance (12-30 AWG / 0.2-4mm²) providing greater application flexibility
  • Identical compliance certifications: RoHS compliant, REACH unaffected, UL94 V-0 flammability rating
  • Maintained screw termination specifications and torque requirements

The 1946480000 is suitable for direct replacement in all applications where the 1741860000 was originally specified, with the added benefit of improved electrical performance and broader wire gauge compatibility.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 1946480000 directly replace the 1741860000 in existing installations?

A: Yes. The 1946480000 maintains identical mechanical dimensions, pitch, position count, mounting configuration, and termination method. All screw torque specifications and contact materials are identical, ensuring direct mechanical and electrical compatibility.

Q: What are the key differences between these two parts?

A: The primary differences are product status and electrical ratings. The 1946480000 is active (versus obsolete), offers higher current ratings (17.5A IEC / 15A UL versus 16.5A IEC / 10A UL), and accepts a wider wire gauge range (12-30 AWG / 0.2-4mm² versus 12-26 AWG / 0.2-2.5mm²).

Q: Are there packaging differences between the 1741860000 and 1946480000?

A: The 1741860000 packaging is not specified in the available data. The 1946480000 is supplied in bulk packaging. Confirm packaging requirements with your procurement specifications.

Q: Do both parts meet the same compliance standards?

A: Yes. Both parts are RoHS compliant, REACH unaffected, and carry the UL94 V-0 flammability rating. Both operate across the identical temperature range of -50°C to 100°C.

Q: What wire gauges are compatible with each part?

A: The 1741860000 accepts 12-26 AWG (0.2-2.5mm²). The 1946480000 accepts 12-30 AWG (0.2-4mm²), providing compatibility with larger gauge conductors.

Q: Are the screw termination specifications identical?

A: Yes. Both parts use M2.5 screws with identical torque specification of 0.4-0.5 Nm (4.6-4.4 Lb-In). Wire strip length differs slightly (8mm for 1741860000 versus 7mm for 1946480000).
