Ideal 30-1042 Orange Spliceline In-Line Wire Connectors
Ideal 30-1042 Wire Connectors provide a fast and secure way to join two conductors in-line. The push-in design forms a tight end-to-end splice without the need for a crimp tool. As a result, installation time is reduced and work on site becomes more efficient.
Designed for everyday electrical tasks, Ideal 30-1042 Wire Connectors suit prefabricated wiring, lighting drops and ring circuits. The slim body passes through standard knockouts, which helps when space is limited. In addition, the clear housing allows you to check that each conductor is fully seated.
Fast and Secure In-Line Splicing
With a simple push action, the first conductor is inserted and held firmly in place. Then the second conductor is pushed in to complete the joint. This through-crimp method creates a reliable straight-through splice that supports neat and repeatable installations.
Wide Compatibility and Compliance
Each connector accepts solid conductors from 0.5 mm² to 4.0 mm² and stranded conductors from 1.0 mm² to 2.5 mm². Rated at 32 A up to 450 V and 105°C, Ideal 30-1042 Wire Connectors meet EN 60998-1 and EN 60998-2-2 standards. They are also compliant with BS 7671 usage guidance for safe electrical work.
Supplied in a box of 100, Ideal 30-1042 Wire Connectors help keep vans and stores stocked for planned jobs and small repairs. The compact form supports tidy enclosures and consistent results across site work. This makes them a practical choice for professional electricians.
