1700114 Application Field and Working Principle

A terminal block is a type of electrical connector that joins two or more wires or conductors together. It can also be used as a point of connection between a device and a equipment so that the wiring is neat and orderly, eliminating the need for a bunch of more wires. It is normally used in applications where insulation, moisture or environmental seals are important, and can withstand a high level of current.Terminal blocks can also be used as the point of connection between separate pieces of electrical equipment.

Terminal blocks are typically divided into two distinct categories, including insulated, and un-insulated. Insulated terminal blocks are typically used in wet or corrosive environments, while un-insulated terminal blocks are more suited for dry environments. Terminal blocks can come in a variety of shapes and sizes, depending on the application. Some of the most common types of terminal blocks include banana plugs, barrier strips, terminal strips and edge connectors.

The 1700114 series of terminal blocks from ABB are a range of insulated, direct wire insertion, 4mm terminal blocks, featuring universal coding strips, allowing the user to connect wires in an easy and reliable way. These terminal blocks feature a U-shaped wiring slot in the base, with captive screws on the top which allows for quick and easy wiring installations. The wiring slots are designed to securely hold the wire in place, preventing any slipping or accidental disconnection.

The 1700114 series of terminal blocks are designed to operate in a wide range of temperatures, from -40°C to +85°C, and feature a self-closing lid that provides a safe, secure connection and protects against environmental hazards. Additionally, the terminal blocks feature a triple insulation system, which provides an additional layer of protection against shock and vibration. The insulation system consists of a base insert, a box, and a lid, which locks securely in place, making it safe for use in high-voltage applications.

Overall, the 1700114 series of terminal blocks from ABB are designed for easy installation and provide superior insulation and electrical connection capabilities for a wide range of applications. The terminal blocks offer a safe and reliable way to connect a variety of electrical wires, without the need for complex wiring or soldering. With superior protection against shock, vibration and environmental hazards, the 1700114 series of terminal blocks are an excellent choice for any application needing a safe and reliable electrical connection.
