WAGO 773-168 8 Conductor Wall Nuts (Box of 50)

These are such a simple and effective way to replace wire nuts. It is an easy visual to make sure your wires are in all the way, and take up less space. Twisting wires is an archaic artform left to the pros of old. Buy these and be happy with your work.

The nice thing about these is that you can push in one wire at a time. There is no need to hold a bundle of wires together like with a wire nut. Additionally, each wire gets a nice, secure condition along with visual indication.

So, I am not a professional electrician, but I am in the school of thought that as long as my connectors are UL listed and code compliant, they are going to be adequate for my home.So I don't really care which connector is "best". These were good enough for my application.I had a junction box that had a bunch of 14/2s meeting, and I was going to have to make an unreasonably sized splice for the box (and the smart switches I was putting in).I used one of these to splice all my ground wires together, and I threw in a pigtail leading to a Wago 221. That way, all of the current grounds could be semipermanent but I'd have an easy job of swapping out devices.I used 221s for the rest of the box.Because these are rectangular, it was easy to fold the wires over. They also allow the wires to turn (rotate) in the jack, which helps with the folding over. They also stack. This all makes the box pretty easy to organize. You still have to work the wires, but they just end up have fewer unmanageable folds that take up more space than they should.I prefer the 221s since they are easily removable, but these semipermanemt ones are great for things that (probably) won't change (but still might). Also, they don't make an 8 port wago 221 and I wanted my 6 grounds and pig tail way in the back there.

I’m done with the old spin on caps.

I'm always a little disappointed when well-known brands shifts their production to china. Other than that, however, these are reliable and easy to use just like won't expect the wago pushing connectors to be. There's really no reason to risk one of the oddball off name brands when you can get the original brand for a very good value.

I absolutely adore wago lever nuts for a clean and secure install. Much better than having to ensure several wires twist together firmly when you’ve got multiple items to wire up.

These connections make wiring easy and changes easier. Makes junction boxes look cleaner and easier to access.

The WAGO push nuts are described as being able to accept 12 gauge stranded wire. I have tried a few times, unsuccessfully, to get a 12 gauge stranded wire to go in. Even with a fresh, straight cut and strip, it usually either mangles the strands or bends the wire because the insulation is too large in diameter, or both. Ever since I have received them about a week ago, all I have dealt with is 12 gauge (which is why I bought them), but I'm sure they will work just fine with 14 gauge or smaller. I am new to them, so it may take a little experimenting to find out a workable arrangement.

Works amazing when you need to connect multiple wires

Used them in multi switch boxes
