7461060 Terminals - Screw Connectors

Application Field & Working Principle

Terminal screw connectors, also known as wire connectors, screw-type wire connectors, or setscrew wire connectors, are used to join two or more electrical wires. In theory, any two wires can be joined, but typically these types of connectors are used to join two conductor wires, as opposed to being connected to a circuit board or other hardware. Since they are often used in environments that are exposed to harsh environments, they are typically designed to withstand exterior elements, such as water and dirt, which helps ensure that the connection stays secure for a long period of time.

These types of connectors are used in a wide range of applications across the electrical wiring industry. They are commonly used in residence, marine, industrial, and automotive wiring systems. They can also be used in industrial and commercial applications, such as cable assemblies for medical equipment, telecoms, and for airport runway lighting systems.

Terminal screw connectors are available in various sizes, and are constructed out of several different metals, such as brass and copper. They work by clamping down two wires against a setscrew, usually made from stainless steel. This creates a secure connection that can be used in a number of different applications. The clamping down of the setscrew also creates an additional level of insulation between the conductor wires, which helps to prevent any accidental shorts from occurring.

The working principle behind a terminal screw connection is relatively simple yet effective. First, the two wires to be connected are stripped down at both ends to expose the bare wire. Each end is then inserted through the back of the connector, before being connected to the setscrew. When the setscrew is tightened, the two wires become firmly clamped together. This ensures a tight connection between the two wires, which is both secure and dependable. Since the wire is stripped down to its bare metal, the screw connection provides additional insulation to help prevent line shorts.

In addition to the basic terminal screw connection, there are many other types of connectors on the market today, such as electrical splices, wire nuts, and twist-on connectors. No matter the type of connection, the basic principle remains the same: to provide a secure and dependable connection while ensuring additional insulation to protect against shorts. Terminal screw connectors are simple and relatively inexpensive to use, making them an ideal choice for most basic wiring needs.
