325008-10-0

Terminal blocks are electrical components used to connect multiple electrical wires. Barrier blocks are a type of terminal block used to keep electrical circuits separate from one another. The term "barrier block" describes their function, which is to act as a barrier between two different circuits. The 325008-10-0 barrier block is a single-level terminal block that is designed for use in applications with up to 10 AWG wire.

These barrier blocks are manufactured from a rugged polycarbonate material that is flame retardant and impact resistant. They are capable of withstanding temperatures from -40 to 110 degrees Celsius, and the contacts are silver- or tin-plated for corrosion resistance. The 325008-10-0 has a nominal voltage rating of 250V, a current rating of 15A, and a wiring capacity of 10 AWG. This terminal block is RoHS compliant and UL listed.

This barrier block design features a positively latching design, which ensures a reliable connection between the wiring and the contact points. The contacts are designed with a square sleeve for ease of use, and the contact surface is flush with the housing to provide protection from accidental short circuits. The housing also features finger-safe terminals that keep users safe from electric shock.

To use the 325008-10-0 barrier block, the user first strips the insulation from the end of a wire. The wire is then inserted into the housing from the front and is securely held in place with a locking mechanism. An terminal screw is then tightened into place which further secures the connection and prevents it from loosening. This process can then be repeated with additional wires if needed in order to connect multiple circuits.

The 325008-10-0 barrier block is a reliable and effective way to keep multiple electrical circuits separate and to ensure safe connection of wiring. Its rugged design, positive latching mechanism, and finger-safe terminals ensure that this barrier block will provide reliable performance and long-lasting reliability in a wide variety of applications.
