Terminal blocks are commonplace in commercial and industrial applications. They are used to connect two or more different electrical circuits or devices, and are commonly referred to as connectors, unless they are used specifically for power distribution. Terminal blocks are often used to securely connect devices to an electrical system or structure, and can be easily disconnected without having to separate conductors. They also reduce the risk of electrical shock, since they make it easier to disconnect the power.

0387390600 terminal blocks are barrier blocks, which feature a single line of terminals with two pins per terminal. The two contacts of each terminal are held apart by a "barrier" element, usually in the form of a plastic or ceramic material with a track of holes, allowing the contacts to be bridged by an insulated body with a stud, nut, or screw. Barrier blocks often have additional features, such as tag labels to identify each connection point, and quick-connect devices to make the connection easier.

In addition to their main purpose of connecting electrical circuits, barrier blocks are also used to terminate wires of different sizes and gauge ratings. This reduces the amount of time, effort, and resources needed to solder, crimp, or otherwise make electrical connections. They are also used to construct 3-phase systems, as many blocks are rated for 3-phase power. They can be used to configure a wide variety of distribution systems. Barrier blocks are even designed to mount horizontally or vertically, as per the specific application.

The working principle of a 0387390600 terminal block is simple. First, a conductor is inserted into one of the holes in the barrier block, and each contact is then connected by closing the barrier. Power is then allowed to flow through the conductor and the contacts, connecting the two circuits. The device can be easily disengaged by simply opening the barrier, which interrupts the flow of power. This design is easy to use and makes it difficult for two contacts to become accidentally connected.

Terminal blocks are a reliable, efficient, and easily operable solution for distributing power and creating secure connections between circuits. 0387390600 barrier blocks provide an even easier, simpler way to do this, with two contacts securely held apart by a barrier. When properly installed and used, these types of blocks can be an invaluable asset to any electrical system.
