OSTOQ083251

Terminal Blocks - Headers, Plugs and Sockets

The OSTOQ083251 terminal block is an electrical connector designed to connect two or more wires together with minimal effort. This type of terminal block has a wide range of applications, from industrial, automotive and medical to residential, aerospace and military applications. It is a convenient and reliable method of connecting wires.

The most common type of terminal block is the header, plug and socket. This type of connection is used to connect two or more wires securely and safely. The header plugs into a header socket which is used to join two or more wires together. The header socket has a grounding conductor that connects to the outer sleeve of the terminal block to ensure electrical continuity and provide an additional point for secure connection.

The OSTOQ083251 terminal block is designed for use in a wide range of applications. It has a 4.8mm pitch and two 5mm sockets for easy connection. The terminal block is rated for a temperature range of -25°C to +105°C (-13°F to +221°F). It is made from high quality aluminum with a yellow zinc electroplated finish for extra protection against corrosion. It is UL recognized, CSA approved, and meets IEC 60664-1 standards.

In terms of working principle, the OSTOQ083251 terminal block has two mode of operations. The first mode is a simple direct "through wire" connection. In this mode, the wires are connected directly, without using any additional wire connections or splicing. This is the simplest type of connection and is often used in residential applications. The second mode is an indirect connection, in which the wires are connected through a busbar connection.

In a busbar connection, two wires are connected using a special connector, commonly known as a "terminal bus." This connection is often used in industrial applications or wherever multiple connections are required. The terminal block is connected to the busbar using a special connector and the two wires are connected using a second connector. The terminal bus then acts as a common ground for all of the connected circuits.

The OSTOQ083251 terminal block is a versatile and reliable connection device for a variety of applications. It is easy to install, and with its UL recognition, it provides the assurance that it meets applicable safety standards. It is sure to provide a strong and secure connection for any residential, commercial, or industrial application.
