Why Choose the WAGO 2116-5201 2-Conductor Through Terminal Block?
The WAGO 2116-5201 is a high-performance 2-conductor through terminal block designed for reliable conductor connection and potential distribution in industrial control panels, switchgear and electrical installations. As part of the WAGO TOPJOB® S family, it combines lever and push-button operation with WAGO's spring-pressure connection technology to make wiring straightforward while maintaining a secure electrical connection.
The terminal block provides two conductor connection points on a common potential and is designed for DIN-rail mounting. Its combination of operating methods supports efficient installation of different conductor types: the lever provides convenient hands-free opening of the clamping point, while the push-button enables intuitive operation using a suitable tool. Depending on conductor type, suitable solid conductors can also be inserted directly using Push-in CAGE CLAMP® technology.
With a nominal conductor cross-section of 16 mm², a rated current of 76 A and a rated voltage of 800 V, the grey WAGO 2116-5201 is well suited to higher-current power distribution and control applications. Its compact rail-mounted format provides a dependable alternative to screw-type terminals while eliminating the need for routine screw-terminal retightening.

Reliable Spring-Pressure Connection for Industrial Wiring
Through terminal blocks provide a convenient means of joining two conductors at the same electrical potential. The WAGO 2116-5201 uses spring-pressure connection technology rather than a conventional screw connection, helping provide consistent conductor contact while reducing installation and maintenance requirements.
The combination of lever and push-button operation gives installers flexibility when wiring different conductor types. The lever can hold the clamping point open for convenient conductor insertion and removal, while the push-button provides direct access to the spring connection. This makes the terminal particularly useful for panel building, field wiring and applications where conductors may need to be installed or changed during commissioning and maintenance.
Typical Applications
- Industrial control cabinets and electrical panels.
- Power distribution and through-wiring circuits.
- Machine building and factory automation systems.
- Switchgear and low-voltage distribution equipment.
- Motor and machinery power connections.
- DIN-rail terminal assemblies requiring high-current conductor connections.
