Phoenix Contact 3056349 Terminal Block - Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The Phoenix Contact 3056349 is a 1-position terminal block with bolt/screw clamp wire entry at 90° to the panel in gray. This component is classified as obsolete, making identification of equivalent substitute parts essential for ongoing system maintenance and component procurement. The CLIPLINE RW series design provides secure wire termination with engagement pin features suitable for industrial control and power distribution applications.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the Phoenix Contact 3056349 is determined by the following critical parameters:

• Electrical Compatibility: Voltage rating (600 V UL) and current capacity must meet or exceed the original specification
• Mechanical Configuration: 1-position terminal block with bolt/screw clamp connection and 90° wire entry orientation
• Wire Gauge Compatibility: Wire gauge range must accommodate the original 2-14 AWG specification
• Panel Mount Type: 2-piece panel mount configuration
• Functional Features: Engagement pin presence for secure wire retention
• Compliance: RoHS compliance status

The Weidmüller 2444660000 (WGK 25 GY BX) qualifies as a substitute based on matching electrical voltage rating, mechanical connection type, panel mount configuration, engagement pin feature, and RoHS compliance status. Wire gauge range differences and current rating variations are noted in the parameter comparison.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The Weidmüller 2444660000 (WGK 25 GY BX) is an active product substitute for the obsolete Phoenix Contact 3056349. Both components maintain identical voltage ratings (600 V UL), mechanical connection methodology (bolt/screw clamp with 90° wire entry), panel mount configuration (2-piece), and engagement pin features. Both components are RoHS compliant.

The primary engineering consideration is the current rating differential: the Weidmüller substitute carries a 100 A UL rating compared to the original 115 A specification. Wire gauge compatibility ranges differ, with the Weidmüller component supporting 3-10 AWG versus the original 2-14 AWG range. These parameter differences must be evaluated against specific application requirements to determine suitability for replacement in existing installations.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the Weidmüller 2444660000 directly replace the Phoenix Contact 3056349?

A: Direct replacement is possible when application current requirements do not exceed 100 A and wire gauges fall within the 3-10 AWG range. The matching voltage rating, connection type, panel mount configuration, and engagement pin feature support functional equivalence within these electrical constraints.

Q: What are the key differences between these two terminal blocks?

A: The primary differences are current rating (115 A versus 100 A), wire gauge range (2-14 AWG versus 3-10 AWG), and product status (obsolete versus active). Electrical voltage rating, mechanical configuration, and compliance certifications are identical.

Q: Why is the wire gauge range different?

A: Wire gauge range differences reflect design specifications of each manufacturer's terminal block series. The Weidmüller WGK series supports 3-10 AWG, which covers the mid-range of the original Phoenix Contact specification but excludes the smallest (2 AWG) and largest (12-14 AWG) wire sizes.

Q: Are both components RoHS compliant?

A: Yes, both the Phoenix Contact 3056349 and Weidmüller 2444660000 are RoHS compliant, meeting environmental and material restriction requirements for industrial applications.

Q: What is the packaging difference?

A: The Phoenix Contact 3056349 packaging specification is not provided. The Weidmüller 2444660000 is supplied in box packaging.
