Best Alternatives to AB 1492 Feed Thru Screw Terminals: Phoenix Contact or Wago Options

Question:

We have heavily relied on AB 1492 feed thru screw terminals in the past, but the extended lead time from our distributor has been a significant issue. Are there any similar alternatives from Phoenix Contact or Wago available? It has been rumored that Wago or another manufacturer produces these terminals for AB. Any recommendations on equivalent products or part numbers would be greatly appreciated.

Many AB terminals are manufactured by Weidmuller, a popular brand in the industry. While I haven't dealt with their products recently, I recall my dissatisfaction with Weidmuller's online catalog in the past. It would be wise to reach out to a distributor and request assistance in cross-referencing your 1492s to potentially save money. Additionally, their label printers and media are known to be consistent across products.

I can understand the frustration with the lead times! For alternatives, you might want to check out the Phoenix Contact MC 1.5/3-3 and Wago 250 series terminals; both offer solid screw terminal solutions and are known for their reliability. There’s also speculation about Wago's terminals being manufactured by the same producers as AB, which could mean they might share compatibility, but I’d recommend double-checking the specifications to ensure a match with your needs. It could be worth reaching out to their support teams for more detailed guidance!
