Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

The ESLM08100 has one identified substitute: TE Connectivity AMP Connectors part number 282836-8. Substitution is valid based on the following matching parameters:

• 8-position configuration with identical pitch (0.197" / 5.00mm)
• Horizontal with board mating orientation
• Identical current (14.6 A) and voltage (300 V) ratings
• Through-hole mounting type
• Screw-based rising cage clamp wire termination
• Side interlocking feature
• Polyamide (PA66) housing material
• RoHS compliance status

The substitute maintains functional equivalence for standard PCB terminal block applications within the specified electrical and mechanical constraints.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the ESLM08100 and 282836-8 are active production components with RoHS compliance. The ESLM08100 supports wire gauges from 14-30 AWG, while the substitute 282836-8 supports 16-30 AWG. Applications requiring 14-15 AWG wire termination must use the ESLM08100. For applications within the 16-30 AWG range, either part is electrically and mechanically equivalent. The substitute offers higher inventory availability (2015 units versus 1102 units). Both parts are rated for identical current (14.6 A) and voltage (300 V) with matching through-hole mounting and screw termination specifications. Selection between these parts should be based on wire gauge requirements, packaging preference (tray versus bulk), and color specification (black versus green).

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can 282836-8 replace ESLM08100 in all applications?

A: The 282836-8 is functionally equivalent for applications using wire gauges 16-30 AWG. Applications requiring 14-15 AWG wire termination must use the ESLM08100, as the substitute supports only 16-30 AWG.

Q: Are the electrical ratings identical?

A: Yes. Both parts are rated for 14.6 A current and 300 V voltage with identical through-hole mounting and screw-based rising cage clamp termination.

Q: What is the difference in contact material?

A: The ESLM08100 uses copper alloy with tin plating, while the 282836-8 uses brass with tin plating. Both materials are suitable for the specified electrical ratings and operating temperature range.

Q: Does packaging type affect compatibility?

A: Packaging (tray versus bulk) does not affect electrical or mechanical compatibility. Selection depends on procurement and handling requirements.

Q: Are both parts RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. The ESLM08100 is RoHS Compliant, and the 282836-8 is ROHS3 Compliant. Both meet current RoHS requirements.

Q: What is the operating temperature range for both parts?

A: The ESLM08100 operates from -40°C to 110°C. Operating temperature data for the 282836-8 was not provided in the specification.
