The status quo as a challenge
The mechanical and plant engineering industry is facing major problems due to a shortage of skilled workers. Existing employees often have to perform tasks that could be completed much more quickly today. There is considerable potential for improvement, particularly in the wiring of motor protection switches and contactors. Conventional screw-type connection technology is time-consuming. While spring loaded and push-in terminals offer faster solutions, they are only partially suitable for untrained personnel and robots, are more difficult to handle, and are not suitable for all cable types.
Our answer
With over 100 years of experience in motor protection, we present the new generation of TeSys Deca with snap-in technology! This enables tool-free connection in just one second per conductor, accelerating the connection process by up to 96 percent. The robust spring terminals remain secure even under vibration and require no retightening. The snap-in terminals provide acoustic, haptic and visual feedback through a distinct clicking sound when the conductor is correctly engaged.
In a snap!
The groundbreaking snap-in connection technology enables significant time savings in wiring. It enables both unskilled workers and robots to create error-free connections. Tool-free, one-handed assembly, clear feedback, and zero maintenance greatly simplify the wiring process. This allows systems to be commissioned quickly, efficiently, and safely.

Finally get to the point faster!
More time for important things – in a snap!
The simple wiring method not only allows laypeople or automated systems to effortlessly connect the wires to the terminals, but also significantly reduces the time required. Snap-in technology allows a conductor to be connected in just two seconds. This represents a time savings of 96 percent compared to approximately 30 seconds with screw connections. Snap-in wiring is also up to 88 percent faster than spring terminals and push-in systems.

Ready-to-Robot – in a snap!
The innovative snap-in terminal block is specifically designed for an automated future and is therefore "ready-to-robot." A collaborative robot—such as the Lexium Cobot from Schneider Electric—can perform the necessary wiring tasks. The robot arm simply needs to insert the wire into the appropriate opening. Through clear audio-visual feedback during insertion, a robot with appropriate sensors can ensure optimal contact closure.
