WAGO MCS 231-302/037-000 MOD F-CONN W/LOCKING DEVICE

Splicing connectors fall within the application scope of the Low Voltage Directive 2014/35/EU.

In the Low Voltage Directive’s reference list, the standard applicable to splicing connectors is

the EN 60998 series. All WAGO splicing connectors have been tested on the basis of the

standards in this series by independent testing institutes and certified accordingly.

Based on these test results and certifications, WAGO declares that these products comply with

the requirements of the Low Voltage Directive for these products and affixes the CE marking

accordingly.

Furthermore, WAGO labels its splicing connectors with the ENEC mark. Use of this mark is only

permitted if further requirements (like application of a quality system meeting at least the level

of ISO 9000. regular inspection of the end products and verified production controls) have been

fulfilled during production and proven to an external testing institute. Compared to similar

certifications of national testing institutes (e.g., the VDE mark), for WAGO customers, the ENEC

mark confirms compliance above and beyond the applicable standards of the corresponding country.

In fact, the ENEC mark covers all certifications of all national testing institutes that have joined the

ENEC agreement, regardless of the testing location. Currently, 25 well-known testing institutes are

authorized to issue the ENEC certificate. These include VDE Testing and Certification Institute GmbH,

SGS Fimko Ltd., DEKRA Certification BV and the British Standards Institution.

Tested and Approved

There are three approval processes, leading to three different approval marks, for certifying connectors

for use in Germany or all of Europe. These approvals differ in terms of the product standards they apply

to and the countries in which they are valid (see table).

WAGO follows the ENEC procedure in gaining new approvals for splicing connectors complying with EN

60998. This procedure corresponds to the process for obtaining the VDE mark, except it is valid for all

of Europe after a single test. Because the ENEC procedure makes no provision for approvals according

to EN 60947. but an approval for these products must be applicable everywhere in Europe, new approvals

for rail-mount terminal blocks are sought through the CCA procedure. The CCA procedure is based on a

national approval within a European country and is also certified with the corresponding national approval

mark. An additional CCA certificate extends the validity of the national approval to Europe.

Stay on the Safe Side with WAGO

The installer is responsible for selecting approved products and installing them correctly. With the approval

in accordance with the applicable product standards of all connectors its wide range of products, WAGO

provides the perfect basis for standard-compliant installation. Moreover, all WAGO connectors undergo

internal tests with even more stringent demands on quality. Only after these tests have been passed are

the products released, giving the user the high level of safety and reliability WAGO is known for.
