This NSi Industries PIWC-8-C Easy-Twist push-in wire connector is suitable for connecting eight solid or stranded copper wires from American Wire Gauge #22 to #12. Conductors need only to be stripped and inserted to ensure a proper connection. Its housing is made of polycarbonate that meets Underwriters Laboratories (UL) standard 94 V-2 for flame resistance. It has a voltage rating of 600V (up to 1,000V when used with fixtures and signs) and a temperature range of -40 to +221 degrees F (-30 to +105 degrees C). The connector has a gray color code for easy identification of wire connections, and it has an integrated test port that allows for continuity testing. It measures 0.748 x 0.411 x 1.443 inches (L x H x W). (L is length, the horizontal distance from front to back; H is height, the vertical distance from bottom to top; W is width, the horizontal distance from left to right.) This push-in wire connector is UL and Underwriters Laboratories of Canada (cUL) Listed, and is suitable for a wide range of electrical applications with appropriately sized conductors.

These connectors are a welcome relief from straining to properly install wire nuts, only to find that one wire is not properly secured. I always test connections after making them and these connectors always feel really solid. If you pull *hard* on a wire while twisting it, it will come out of the connector, and that means you can pull it apart and put it back together if necessary.From reading up on this I understand these should not be used for high current connections, as they don't have enough contact surface for such current over time. But for lights, etc., they work great.I have seen a number of wire nuts installed by licensed electricians become very loose to the point of dropping off, and that is a real fire danger.These do work on stranded wire, but contrary to the write up, only if you tin the wire first. That really isn't that difficult, and it does stop fraying.

Spent hours trying (failing) to bend and twist 7 or 8 wires each into 3 wire nuts and jam the whole ugly mess into a gangbox. Finally bought these push-in wire connectors and finished in minutes. Best product ever.
