2-1437410-5 Application Field and Working Principle

Terminal blocks –adapters are also known as terminal strip adapters, which are typically used to connect two wires together in a low voltage / low current application. The 2-1437410-5 terminal block adapter is designed to work within the range voltage of 250V AC and 7A, and is a through terminal type. It is commonly used in control and power supply equipment for easy connection and disconnection.

The working principle of 2-1437410-5 terminal block adapter is relatively simple. The adapter has three parts – the wiring block, two brass alloy contact terminals and two insulation plates. The wirings block is made of a non–conductive insulating material such as plastic/nylon. The contact terminals are made of brass alloy and serve as the connectors for the wires. The insulation plates are also made of plastic/nylon to preventing unwanted contact.

The wiring block has a pair of contact terminals which are placed inside the block for the two wires to be connected. The wires can be securely inserted into the block and then twisted together around the contact terminals. To ensure that the wiring block and contacts remain insulated from each other, the insulation plates are placed on either side of the wiring block. The insulated plates provide a barrier between the two terminals which ensures that the electrical current flows only between the wires and contact terminals and not through the insulation plates.

Once the wires are connected to the contact terminals, the terminal block adapter also allows for easy disconnection of the wires by unscrewing the insulation plates. Once the plates have been removed, the two wires can be easily pulled apart, allowing for easy replacement or reconfiguration of the wiring.

In conclusion, the 2-1437410-5 terminal block adapter is used in low voltage/low current applications such as control and power supply equipment. The adapter has three parts – the wiring block, two brass alloy contact terminals and two insulation plates. When two wires are connected, the electrical current flows only between the wires and contact terminals and not through the insulation plates. The adapter also allows for easy disconnection of the wires by unscrewing the insulation plates.
