0387104705

Terminal blocks are components used for mounting and connecting wires. 0387104705 are a type of terminal block labeled as barrier blocks. They are used for connection of overhead wiring and wiring in confined spaces.

Application Fields

Barrier blocks can be used for a variety of general-purpose electrical applications. For example, they are used for connecting several separate circuits into one, creating a main and sub circuits within the same block, and providing safe isolation between different circuits.

In industrial settings, 0387104705 are also commonly used. Since they are UL® Approved and rated up to 600 V, they are suitable for most industrial applications. Accessories such as mounting brackets, strain reliefs, and covers are sold separately and can be added to enhance flexibility and lower installation time.

Working Principle

The working principle of barrier blocks is relatively simple and straight-forward. Depending on the arrangement, the terminal block can be split into one or two isolated sections, also known as the main and sub circuits. Current flows through the main section, and individual wires connected to the sub-circuit are fed energy from the main circuit.

To connect a wire to a 0387104705 barrier block, simply strip a small length of the insulation from the wire. This exposed wire can then be placed within the barrier block’s connection point and tightened with a screwdriver. There is no need for soldering.

Once secure, the wire should be held firmly in place and will not become loose. The connection can then be disconnected and reconnected as needed. This makes 0387104705 barrier blocks a great choice for applications where repeated connections are necessary.
