1 Scope

This part of IEC 61076‑2 describes 4- to 6-way circular connectors with M12 screw-locking with current ratings 8, 12 or 16 A per contact and voltage ratings of 50 V AC / 60 V DC or 630 V according to their coding, that are typically used for power supply and power applications in industrial premises.

These connectors consist of both fixed and free connectors, either rewirable or non-rewirable. Male connectors have round contacts Ø1,0 mm and Ø1,5 mm.

The different codings provided by this document prevent the mating of differently coded male or female connectors to any other similarly sized interfaces, covered by other standards and the cross-mating between the different codings provided by this document.
