PP180 SPECIFICATIONS

NOTE 1: See IEC 60664-1 for working voltage.

NOTE 2: Amp ratings are stated per position and based on all positions being

fully loaded.

1 - Based on: 105°C rated or better cable of the largest size, Properly

calibrated APP® recommended tooling, and a 25°C ambient temperature.

UL rating not to exceed the maximum operating temperature. CSA rating

below a 30°C temperature rise.

2 - Limited by the thermal properties of the connector plastic housing.

3 - Use APP® recommended tooling only. Alternate tools may adversely affect

the performance of our connectors along with UL and CSA recognition.

4 - Based on 2 housings blocked together.
