Terminal Blocks - Power Distribution

16595-2 is the standard for terminal blocks used in power distribution systems. As the name implies, terminal blocks, or TBs, are devices used to join wires and provide an anchor point for attachment of components or other devices within an electrical system. The 16595-2 standard provides a clear delineation of design, performance and safety requirements for all types of TBs used in power distribution systems. This standard is applicable to both low- and high-voltage terminal blocks, as well as those used for direct connection to sources and loads.A TB is typically constructed of rigid plastic or metal, and houses two or more conductive elements for fastening and connecting wire conductors. The conductive elements are either soldered or bolted to the frame, forming an electrical path between wires. There are a variety of TB designs, such as forked, multiple-pole, flexible, compact, or through-hole. Each type of TB has its own distinct features and advantages.TBs are used for a variety of applications, ranging from low-voltage control circuits to high-voltage power applications. Common applications include motor control, lighting, home automation, commercial HVAC systems, and industrial and manufacturing processes. A typical low-voltage application would involve the connection of several discrete wire conductors to a control circuit. High-voltage applications, on the other hand, involve the connection of many conductors, often intended for the transmission of power. In either case, TBs are designed and used in accordance with the 16595-2 standard.The 16595-2 standard is designed to ensure that all TBs used in power distribution systems meet established safety requirements for their intended application. It specifies minimum design parameters and requirements, such as arc rupture distance (ARD) between contact surfaces, insulation voltage rating (Uiv), and electrical current rating (IEC). The standard also requires that the TBs be designed with consideration for environmental influences, such as those from temperature and vibration. Additionally, the standard covers all aspects of the TB’s mechanical and electrical construction, including torques pertaining to both contact screws and TB frame screws.TB safety is essential for any power distribution system, as it ensures personnel safety as well as reliable electrical performance. In addition to the 16595-2 safety standards, manufacturers must define any additional safety requirements that are necessary. This might include distinct requirements for specific wire sizes, wire type, number of wires, and other factors.In conclusion, 16595-2 is the applicable standard for TBs used in power distribution systems. This standard specifies design requirements, safety requirements, and environmental considerations for TBs. Additionally, manufacturers must also specify any additional safety requirements necessary for a particular application. By complying with 16595-2, efficient and safe power distribution systems can be achieved.
