Terminal Blocks - Barrier Blocks have been used commonly in industrial settings for decades due to their reliability and effectiveness in electrically connecting components in a way that allows them to be physically and electrically separated. The 0386390071 is a barrier terminal block designed for connecting larger wires that need more electrical power and higher current capacity. It is suitable for panel mount applications and is commonly used in control panels, devices, electronic equipment, and a variety of other applications.

Features

The 0386390071 terminal block lets you securely connect up to three wires of different gauges to a single terminal, with a maximum capacity of up to 16mm² (AWG8). It has a rated voltage of 600 V and a rated current of 32A. Features include a positive locking screw, a vibration-proof body, and an insulating shroud designed to prevent accidental contact with live parts.

Wiring

Wiring the 0386390071 terminal block requires that the terminal block is secured to a mounting plate via mounting screws. Wires are then inserted into the terminal block and fixed with a locking screw. The wire should be stripped and the insulation should be pushed back by about 1.5-2mm in order to ensure a secure fit into the terminal block. The terminals are designed to accept multiple wires of different gauges within the maximum current capacity.

Working Principle

The 0386390071 terminal block functions by connecting wires of different gauges together in a secure, insulated, and vibration-proof manner. It retains the connection even under high current and vibration. The terminal’s screw locks the wire in place and provides an electrical connection between the wires even under adverse conditions. The insulated shroud prevents contact with live terminals, providing a safe and reliable connection.

Applications

The 0386390071 Terminal Blocks - Barrier Blocks are designed for a variety of applications. These include industrial workloads such as control panel wiring, general purpose electrical wiring, instrumentation wiring, medical and laboratory equipment, and many other applications where there is a need for secure and insulated connections.

Conclusion

The 0386390071 Terminal Blocks - Barrier Blocks are designed for secure and reliable connections between wires of different gauges. It is made of a vibration-proof body and insulated shroud that prevents accidental contact with live parts. Ideal for a wide range of panel mount applications, this terminal block provides a secure electrical connection and is suitable for a variety of industrial, medical, and laboratory wiring applications.
