Terminal Blocks - Barrier Blocks

Barrier blocks are a type of electrical terminal block typically used for wire connection and management. Specifically, the 6STR-02-006 terminal block is designed for flexible panel mounting and single-pole connections.

Application Field

The 6STR-02-006 barrier block is a simple and reliable connection for low current electrical circuits such as switchgear circuits, power supply, control devices, and household appliances. The simple design allows for easy and reliable electrical connections with flexibility and robustness. It is suitable for use in many practical environments such as automotive audio settings, electrical instrumentation control panels and domestic LED lighting.

Working Principle

The 6STR-02-006 terminal block is a single-pole, panel-mounted terminal block that uses a screw connection. It consists of a connector body, a base with a contact point, and a termination system that protects the connection point from dust and moisture. The connection point is made by turning the screw axially, which makes the contact between the screw and the base. The screw has an embedded spring electrode washer that maintains electrical contact between the screws and the base.

The base has a series of round or shaped metal contacts called jumpers, which are used to make the electrical connections between the circuit and the terminal block. These jumpers are designed to make contact with the contact points on the screw, allowing for electrical current to flow through the terminal block. Jumpers can also be used to make connections to other components such as diodes or resistors in the circuit.

The 6STR-02-006 has a number of advantages such as its robustness, flexibility, low cost and quick installation. It is also suitable for use in harsh conditions due to its high operation temperature (up to 140°C) and it has a low resistance value (less than 0.01 ohms). These advantages make the terminal block an ideal choice for many electrical applications.
