Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

The 703W-00/54 qualifies as a manufacturer-recommended substitute for the 703-00/09/C based on the following alignment of critical parameters:

• Connector Style: Both parts conform to IEC 320-C14 standard
• Connector Type: Both are receptacles with male blades
• Number of Positions: Both feature 3 positions
• Mounting Type: Both are panel mount with flange and through-hole right-angle configuration
• Termination Method: Both use solder termination
• Compliance: Both hold CSA and UL approvals; both are ROHS3 compliant

The 703W-00/54 represents an active product with enhanced electrical specifications (10A at 250VAC) and expanded certification scope (addition of VDE approval). Panel cutout dimensions differ slightly, requiring verification of existing panel tooling compatibility.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The 703W-00/54 is the active equivalent for the obsolete 703-00/09/C. Both parts maintain identical connector architecture, electrical interface, and core mechanical mounting characteristics. The substitute part carries expanded regulatory approval (VDE certification) and documented electrical ratings (10A, 250VAC), providing enhanced specification clarity for system design documentation.

Panel cutout dimensions differ between the two parts. The 703W-00/54 requires a slightly larger opening (31.10mm x 23.30mm versus 30.25mm x 22.48mm). Existing panel tooling must be evaluated for compatibility. Panel thickness tolerance also differs marginally (0.118" versus 0.126"), which may affect fit in applications with tight mechanical constraints.

Both parts maintain ROHS3 compliance and identical termination methodology, supporting direct functional replacement in solder-based assembly processes.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 703W-00/54 directly replace the 703-00/09/C in existing designs?

A: Functional replacement is supported due to identical IEC 320-C14 connector architecture, 3-position configuration, and solder termination. Panel cutout dimensions must be verified against existing tooling before implementation.

Q: What is the significance of the panel cutout dimension difference?

A: The 703W-00/54 requires a rectangular opening of 31.10mm x 23.30mm compared to 30.25mm x 22.48mm for the 703-00/09/C. Panels designed for the original part may require modification to accommodate the substitute.

Q: Does the 703W-00/54 provide electrical rating specifications?

A: Yes. The 703W-00/54 is rated for 10A at 250VAC. The original 703-00/09/C does not specify electrical ratings in available documentation.

Q: Are both parts compliant with current regulatory standards?

A: Both parts are ROHS3 compliant. The 703W-00/54 carries CSA, UL, and VDE approvals, while the 703-00/09/C holds CSA and UL approvals.

Q: What is the packaging difference between these parts?

A: The 703-00/09/C packaging is not specified. The 703W-00/54 is supplied in bulk packaging.
