Swapped my old screw terminals for push connectors on every panel
I used to spend forever stripping and tightening each wire on alarm panels, until a job at a condo complex with 12 panels in one day made me switch to Wago-style push connectors. Now I finish terminations in half the time with way less hand fatigue. Has anyone else made the swap and noticed a big difference on high-volume installs?

For @piper_reed - honestly, I've had them on panels for over 3 years without a single loose connection. Screw terminals always seemed to back off after a few months, especially on panels that get vibration from doors slamming nearby. The push connectors hold like a vice once you seat the wire all the way in. Only thing I'd warn about is making sure you get the right gauge for your wire - solid vs stranded can trip you up. They've flat out saved my hands on those 20+ panel days.

Buddy had one pop loose on a bumpy truck ride.
