Perfectly Plugged Electrical Installations – with WINSTA®

The WINSTA® Pluggable Connection System easily meets the strict requirements of building installations. The system provides simple pluggable electrical connections, making electrical installations fast, safe and error-free. This also applies to other applications, such as marine and railway systems, as well as industrial applications.

All Benefits in at a Glance:

  • Protected against mismating and maintenance-free
  • Push-in CAGE CLAMP® spring pressure connection technology allows solid conductors to be simply pushed into a unit
  • A wide product range readily meets all electrical installation requirements: plugs, sockets, snap-in device connectors, PCB connectors, as well as distribution connectors, cable assemblies and distribution boxes
  • Compact design
  • Components can be clearly printed on and color-coded to meet custom requirements

Conventional Installation vs. Pluggable Installation

The WINSTA® Pluggable Connection System is based on cable assemblies and standard components, which are combined in accordance with the construction project. WINSTA® is the ideal solution for multiple installations or those planned in a grid, e.g., grid or flush-mount lighting installation. Thanks to this pre-assembled connection system, assembly times and installation errors on the construction site are reduced.

Product Overview

For Space-Restricted Applications: WINSTA® MINI

The WINSTA® MINI family is ideal for pluggable electrical installations in confined spaces. Its compact design supports the trend of downsized components, including LED lights and electronic ballasts.

Advantages:

  • Conductor range: up to 1.5 mm2 (16 AWG)
  • Nominal current: 16 A
  • WINSTA® MINI special components for specialty applications (e.g., measurement, control and regulation technology) with custom printing
  • Compact pluggable PCB connectors are available with 4.4 mm (0.1732 inch) pole spacing

For Maximum Possibilities: WINSTA® MIDI

The WINSTA® MIDI family offers the greatest diversity of components for fast, reliable and error-free electrical installations. This enables you to individually and flexibly fulfill the most varying requirements.

Advantages:

  • Conductor range: up to 4 mm2 (12 AWG)
  • Nominal current: 25 A
  • Two-wire connection per pole for loops or bridges
  • Easily identifiable through optional customer-specific printing as well as intelligent labeling accessories
  • Additional variable coding is possible
  • Available in 2- to 7-pole configurations
  • Pluggable lighting connection with the universal Linect® Lighting Connection System and WINSTA® Linect® T-Connectors

For Greater Power: WINSTA® MAXI

The WINSTA® MAXI family includes high-current, pluggable connectors for power supply applications.

Advantages:

  • Conductor range: up to 6 mm2 (8 AWG)
  • Nominal current: 35 A
  • Minimize voltage drop over longer cable runs

For Round Conduits and Ducts: WINSTA® RD

The WINSTA® RD family of pluggable circular connectors is ideal for installation in cable ducts (e.g., in prefabricated houses). Due to their round design, the WINSTA® RD cable assemblies easily fit into properly sized holes and installation pipes.

Advantages:

  • Conductor range: up to 2.5 mm2 (14 AWG)
  • Nominal current: 16 A/20 A
  • Portfolio of three- and four-pole pre-assembled cables with 17.5 mm (0.0689 inch) outer diameter for easy plug & play
  • Plug-in integration into the electrical installation of hollow-wall boxes via adapter, for example

For the Standardized Bus: WINSTA® KNX

WINSTA® KNX is the solution for standardized fieldbus systems in building and industrial automation (e.g., KNX, LON® or ETHERNET).

Advantages:

  • For low voltages up to 50 V
  • Nominal current: 3 A
  • Compact size, standardized interface
  • Available in two different custom coding options with mismating protection

For Maximum Flexibility: WINSTA® IDC

The WINSTA® IDC family consists of flat cables ranging from 1.5 mm2 to 16 mm2 (14–6 AWG) and the associated modules that are compatible with WINSTA® MIDI and WINSTA® KNX Pluggable Connectors and provides power to raised-floor boxes.

Advantages:

  • WINSTA® IDC Supply and Tap-Off Modules allow connection at any location of the flat cable – one rotation per pole is all that is required.
  • Suitable for bus and power lines or for bus and power combined in one cable
  • Easy installation without line interruption due to convenient insulation displacement technology (IDC)
