Applications
The ArrowLink modular wiring device system is designed to provide true specification grade device integrity and product features
to help complete a job quickly and cost effectively. Breadth of line, installation flexibility and ArrowLink SPD connectors provide
a complete job solution for any application. ArrowLink leaded modular connectors utilize wire nuts to terminate the building wire,
offering a familiar installation method. ArrowLink SPD connectors use both screw-in and push-in building wire termination options,
ensuring speed, productivity and dependability. Use either of these connectors during the rough-in and the device of your choice
will come bulk packed and with a factory installed and inspected ArrowLink plug side connector to be installed during trim-out,
increasing trim-out speed and reducing the number of installers required.
