Terminal Blocks - Barrier Blocks are types of electrical connection systems which are used to join two or more wires together. A 0387590121 Terminal Block is designed to hold one or more insulated wires and provide a secure connection between them. It is designed to protect the connection from vibration, moisture, dust, fatigue and oxidation due to its uniquely designed insulation. It also provides an electrical link between two or more components by forming a barrier between them. The barrier blocks provide safety insulation between the components and make it easier to manage electrical wiring.

A Barrier Block consists of a series of contact blocks, which are placed inside a plastic or composite outer housing. The contact blocks can be connected together by using a wide range of crimp terminals, insulation displacement connectors or other modular connections. The contact blocks are made from either metal or polyamides and are available in different sizes. There are two types of contact blocks: open contacts and closed contacts. Open contacts allow more flexibility in connecting and disconnecting wires, whereas closed contacts provide more reliability.

The contacts in the Barrier Blocks are designed to create an electrical connection by ensuring that both the wires remain in contact. This prevents any sparking or arcing of the contacts which can cause short circuits. The contacts are usually positioned so that the wire strands of the contacts overlap each other, creating a point of contact between them. The contact points are also designed to spread the load of the wire strands across a larger area, eliminating any hot spots or potential damage.

The outer insulating housing of the Barrier Blocks is designed to prevent any accidental contact between the contact blocks. It is usually made from a non-conductive material such as PEX or polycarbonate. This provides additional protection against any external threats. The housing also helps to prevent any moisture penetration and contamination from other materials.

The 0387590121 Terminal Block is a common application in the industrial and commercial electrical markets. It is used for a wide range of applications from connecting components, to creating a point of entry for wires and cables. It is also used to create a secure link between multiple wiring systems. Barrier Blocks offer users a wide range of benefits, including safety and reliability. It is designed to reduce the need for time consuming re-wiring and helps to organize component connections easily and conveniently.
