Major Tech Connector Blocks are screwless, spring-lever wire connection systems designed for fast, [ Read More ]
Major Tech Connector Blocks offer fast, tool-free wire connections using screwless spring-lever tech. Choose from PCT Splicing, PCT Interjoining, or LT Splitter types. Rated at 32A, 450V, ICE Approved, with clear housings for easy checks. Suitable for 0.08mm²–2.5mm² wires—ideal for residential and commercial use across Australia.
Major Tech connectors use a spring-lever mechanism that eliminates screwdrivers and reduces connection time from 45-60 seconds to just 10-15 seconds per connection. The tool-free operation means electricians can work single-handed in tight spaces, saving 70-75% installation time. On a project with 100 connections, this translates to nearly 60 minutes of saved labour.
Splicing connectors join wires end-to-end for extending cable runs. Interjoining connectors create parallel connections without cutting the main conductor—perfect for tapping into existing circuits. Splitter connectors distribute power from one input to multiple outputs, ideal for multi-circuit distribution in switchboards.
Yes. Unlike crimp connections, Major Tech connector blocks can be opened and closed multiple times without degrading performance. This makes them ideal for temporary installations, circuit testing, troubleshooting, or situations where modifications are anticipated. Simply lift the orange lever to disconnect and reconnect without cutting wires.
All Major Tech connector blocks are ICE Standard Approved and suitable for use in installations complying with AS/NZS 3000:2018 (Australian Wiring Rules). They're rated for 32A at 450V and have 4kV impulse-voltage resistance, making them suitable for standard residential and commercial electrical work across Australia.
The 32A rating covers standard 20A and 25A circuit breakers used in residential and commercial work. The 450V rating exceeds Australian single-phase 230V requirements by a substantial safety margin. The 4kV impulse voltage resistance protects against voltage spikes during storms or switching events. The 0.08-2.5 mm² wire range covers all standard Australian cable sizes, including 1.0 mm², 1.5 mm², and 2.5 mm² conductors commonly used in lighting and power circuits.
For End-to-End Cable Joining
Join conductors in a straight line to extend cable runs. Most common connector type for direct cable extensions in lighting circuits, power distribution, and control wiring.
Available: 2, 3, and 5-pole models
For In-Line Parallel Connections
Create parallel connections without cutting the main conductor. Ideal for tapping into existing cables to create branch circuits whilst maintaining continuity of the main line.
Available: 2, 3, 4, and 5-pole models
For Multi-Point Distribution
Distribute power from a single input to multiple outputs (4-6 per side). Purpose-built for branching power feeds across multiple circuits in switchboards and distribution panels.
Available: 2 and 3-pole models
Installation requires stripping 12mm of insulation, lifting the orange lever, fully inserting the conductor, and releasing the lever to secure—no tools required.
Use wire strippers to remove exactly 12mm of insulation from each conductor. This measurement is critical—too little and the conductor won't engage properly; too much and the conductor will be exposed outside the connector. For stranded conductors, twist the strands tightly to prevent fraying.
With the LT range, use colour-coded levers to identify poles. Align wire colours with appropriate terminals (Red for active, blue for neutral, yellow for earth). For splitter connectors, determine which side is the input and which is the output. For the splicing connectors, they will be orange in colour.
Lift the orange lever on each terminal fully upwards until it clicks into the open position. The lever should remain open without being held, allowing hands-free conductor insertion. Never force the lever beyond its natural stopping point.
Push the stripped conductor straight into the terminal opening until you feel resistance and the conductor reaches the back of the terminal chamber. The transparent housing allows visual verification that the conductor is fully inserted with no exposed copper visible.
Push the orange lever firmly downwards until it clicks into the closed position. The spring mechanism securely grips the conductor. Perform a gentle tug test—the conductor should not pull out with moderate force. Verify all connections through the transparent housing before energising the circuit.
When working with multiple connectors in confined spaces such as junction boxes or ceiling voids, connect all conductors to the first connector completely before moving to the next. This reduces confusion and ensures each connection is properly secured. Label circuits clearly using cable markers before installation to save time during troubleshooting or future modifications.
All hard-wired electrical work in Australia must be performed by a licensed electrician in compliance with AS/NZS 3000:2018 requirements.
Easily connect multiple downlights, pendants, or wall lights in parallel with interjoining or splitter connectors. The smart housing design makes circuit tracing simple during renovations
Use splicing connectors to extend power circuits when adding rooms or relocating power points. With a 32A rating, they're perfect for standard 20A circuits.
Use interjoining or splitter blocks to create common neutral or earth connections when adding circuits. Their compact size fits easily into most junction boxes.
These connectors are reusable, making them perfect for temporary wiring during renovations, testing layouts, or setting up seasonal installs like outdoor lighting.
Use splitter connectors to distribute power across multiple lighting zones. They streamline complex lighting setups and help cut down installation time.
Easily adjust circuits during shop fit-outs or merchandising changes. The tool-free design enables quick reconfiguration—no special tools needed.
Connect multiple control circuits, sensors, or actuators with ease. The smart housing design helps with troubleshooting and circuit tracing during commissioning.
Splicing connectors are perfect for fast cable repairs when downtime is critical. The spring-lever design lets you connect and test quickly.
Major Tech connector blocks range from $33 to $50 per jar (10–100 pieces), offering great value when you factor in time saved on installs. That’s about $0.37 to $4.50 per connection, depending on the type and quantity.
