Lever connectors are a modern, easy way to connect wires. The lever engages an internal spring-clamp mechanism that simplifies the splicing process. When the levers are lifted, the ports open, and when pushed back down, the wires are locked into place. While they are typically a little more expensive than push-in connectors, lever connectors save time and are uniquely suited for some specific applications. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

We sat down with Kate Gredlics, Product Manager, and Greg Anliker, End User Experience Manager and former electrician with 25+ years of experience, to discuss the best jobs for lever connectors. They shared their top 6 jobs for lever connectors, explaining how lever connectors offer unique advantages in applications that require easy rework, conductor inspection, or frequent modifications. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

1. Data Centres<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Large construction projects such as data centres require a lot of time and resources to be developed. Large crews spend hours assembling complex electrical work that then needs to be closely inspected. Because of this, electrical contractors working on data centres and large construction projects typically see a higher frequency and rigidity in electrical inspections and require connectors that allow them to easily verify proper installation. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Additionally, data centres support critical computing systems where reliability is crucial, and every hour of downtime can cost significant amounts of money. According to CoreSite, the data centre industry\u2019s standard for uptime is 99.999%, or 5.25 minutes of downtime per year<\/a>.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This high pressure to perform means that data centre builds are extensively scrutinised. Every part of the electrical work must be inspected to ensure proper installation. Contractors can prepare for this scrutiny by using products that provide superior ease of troubleshooting, such as lever connectors. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
