WAGO Terminal Block Markings: Why Don't These Match the Datasheet?

WAGO offers a plethora of terminal blocks for use with your projects. Sometimes however, you’ll receive a block such as 2086-1224 with markings that differ in form or placement from the information given in the product’s datasheet. What gives? Are these parts incorrect or defective?

Not at all. WAGO assures us that the photos in the product documentation for this part includes optional accessories that change the marking style, and furthermore that variations in logo printing, style and placement can occur over time without affecting the product’s functionality.
