The 1508-ST Barrier block also offers a range of working principles that can be customized based on the application requirements. Generally, the working principles of the 1508-ST include electrical isolation, polarity reversal, voltage transformation, current surge protection and current limiting. Electrical isolation, also known as electrical separation, is a principle that helps to reduce the risk of electric shock by preventing current flow between two lines. Polarity reversal is a technique used to reverse the direction of the current, allowing it to travel in the opposite direction. Voltage transformation is a technique used to convert high voltages into low voltages, while current surge protection prevents dangerous current overloads. Lastly, the current limiting principle reduces the current output to the load, preventing it from exceeding its maximum rated current.

The 1508-ST Barrier block is an essential component in electrical and electronic systems. It is used in many different fields such as medical, industrial automation, automotive and aerospace. It is designed to meet the requirements of these industries, offering a range of working principles for connection reliability.
