Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the Phoenix Contact 1981607 is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

Electrical Performance: Current and voltage ratings (IEC: 12A/630V; UL: 10A/300V) must be maintained
Physical Configuration: 3-position, 0.197" (5.00mm) pitch, 180° wire entry orientation
Termination Method: Screwless push-in spring mechanism
Mechanical Compatibility: Free-hanging in-line mounting, matching insulation height and wire strip length
Material & Compliance: Polyamide housing, UL94 V-0 flammability rating, RoHS compliance, tin contact finish
Wire Compatibility: Support for 12-26 AWG (0.2-2.5mm²) wire gauges

The Phoenix Contact 1910830 meets all these criteria and serves as the direct active equivalent to the obsolete 1981607 model.
