Should We Use WAGOS or WIRENUTS?!?!

In the latest segment of Electrician U, Dustin answers the question- Should we be using Wire Nuts or Wago’s out in the field to splice our wires? While the answer in your head should seem easy enough, there are several things to consider when choosing your wire splicing materials. 01:39 - Pre-twist gang 02:50 - CODE TIME 08:55 - Why I use what I use 🤘⚡️EU Learning System⚡️🤘 For Individuals --- https://electricianu.com/learning-sys...

Just like almost everything else in the electrical industry, there are several terms for each material! Wago is actually a brand name (one of the first to produce the product) of a push in type wire connector; whereas a wire nut requires twisting force to accomplish the connection. They both have metal connections within the wire splicing item to ensure continuity of the splice, but Wago type wire connectors are much more efficient as they do not require the electrician to twist the wires together with a tool before applying the connector (or using the connector to do the twisting) but the electrician simply pushes the wires into the connecting holes and the metal jaws do the rest of the work. The NEC requires that things be installed per the manufacturer’s instructions. You can find the code reference in Article 110.3(B) of the NEC. In a nutshell, it states that if you do have a piece of equipment that is labeled, listed, or both that you SHALL install AND use per the instructions that are included in the labeling or listing. There are instances within the NEC that do require things to be listed, but this is an item-by-item requirement and should be researched for each task you are performing. Article 110.14 (Electrical Connections) governs wire splicing materials. In essence, it tells us that they wire connectors be identified for the material of the conductor (either copper or aluminum or both) AND shall be properly installed and used. So, having said all of that, as far as the NEC is concerned, if we are using a wire splicing method that is approved for what we are doing with it, identified for the materials being spliced, and installed per the manufacturer’s instructions, pressure type wire connectors are fine. If the NEC is good with it, next would be installer preference. If it is an item that probably won’t be serviced or changed often then wire nuts would be the way most of us would go. We would twist our wires together, install the device, and push it back in the box and leave it. There is really no need to get back into it unless something goes wrong, or the device wears out or something like that. If it is something that will most likely require replacement (such as the rows of fluorescent fixture ballasts in warehouses or large retail stores) then a Wago type wire connector may be more beneficial for us to use as we would not have to untwist each and every joint to replace the item. Wire composition is another factor to consider. Most pressure type wire connectors do not do a great job on stranded conductors but are made more for solid wires. However, Wago DOES have some lever lock type push in wire connectors that will accept stranded wires. As with anything, do your research on what you are wanting to use to see all the different options available.
