Terminal Blocks - Barrier Blocks

A 0387318903 terminal block is an electrical connection device that provides an electrically secure connection point for wires. It is a type of terminal block tied with one or more mechanical barriers that separate and keep different wires running through the block apart.

Application Field

One of the primary applications for this type of terminal block is in the automotive industry and other applications with high-power circuits, such as inverter systems, as well as in electric power systems and machine tools. In the automotive industry, for example, it is used for creating electrical connections between panels and electronic circuits containing multiple wires and in wiring loom assemblies.

Working Principle

The 0387318903 terminal block works by using two housing halves that fit together to hold the wires tightly in place. The housings serve as the mechanical barriers, while the contact points (often referred to as "connectors") are in direct contact with the wires. As the wires are inserted into the contact points, an electrical contact is formed between the two wires and the contact point.

To ensure that the electrical connection remains in place, the contact points are held in place by a spring mechanism and secured with screws, nuts or bolts. This ensures that the connection is secure and can withstand high vibration, shock, and other high-activity conditions.

The 0387318903 terminal block is also equipped with a shock-proof insulation coating, allowing it to withstand extreme temperatures, as well as high mechanic and electromagnetic stresses. This makes it suitable for use in hazardous environments, such as in electrical equipment in the mining, oil and gas, and construction industries.

Once installed, the 0387318903 terminal block provides a secure electrical connection that can resist high voltage and high temperature, as well as mechanical stresses such as vibration, shock, and corrosion. This makes it an ideal choice for connecting wires in high-activity applications such as automotive and industrial equipment.
