Bachmann 375.516 GST 18i3 Wire Connector Black

The Bachmann 375.516 GST 18i3 Black wire connector is a compact, three-pole connector designed to provide secure electrical connections in installations where space, reliability, and straightforward wiring are required. Its robust housing and contact design ensure stable conductivity and mechanical protection for conductor ends, making it suitable for use in fixed installations, machinery connections, and modular electrical assemblies.

Advantages

The connector combines a space-saving form factor with durable materials that resist mechanical stress and provide consistent electrical contact over time. It is engineered for straightforward insertion and clamping of conductors, which simplifies installation and reduces maintenance time. The black finish offers discreet integration into equipment and panels while the three-pole configuration supports common wiring schemes.

Suitable for

• Electrical panel connections and distribution
• Machinery and equipment wiring where a three-pole connector is required
• Professional installations and DIY electrical repairs
• Space-constrained mounting locations

Key specifications

• Number of poles: 3
• Housing colour: black
• Connector type: wire-to-wire / wire-to-device three-pole connector
• Construction: compact, mechanically robust housing
• Contact design: secure clamping contacts for consistent conductivity
• Typical use: fixed installations, equipment wiring, modular assemblies

How to use

Prepare conductor ends according to local electrical standards, ensuring correct strip length and conductor type compatible with the connector. Insert each conductor into the designated pole and engage the clamping mechanism until the conductor is held securely. Verify electrical continuity and mechanical retention after installation. For removal, disengage the clamp or release mechanism and withdraw the conductor carefully to avoid damage.

Recommendations

Confirm compatibility with conductor cross-section and insulation type before installation and follow applicable electrical codes. Avoid exceeding the connector's rated current and environmental limits. Regularly inspect connections in high-vibration or high-temperature environments to maintain safety and performance.
