T38020-15-0 application field and working principle

T38020-15-0 is a specialized type of terminal block with an important application: electrical connection between two normally separate circuits. These terminal blocks, otherwise known as barrier Blocks, permit the connection of two conductors having a different voltage potential without any contact with each other.

The T38020-15-0 provides economical and reliable connection of these circuits, making it a great solution for a variety of applications, including automation, automotive, medical, and industrial. It is available in a variety of sizes, from 6.35mm or 2.54mm spacing, to accommodate different sized applications.

The working principle of these types of terminal blocks is quite simple and straightforward. A terminal block is designed with two separate conductors that are insulated from each other, creating a barrier between them. This gives each conductor one independent connection point to the other conductor. The terminal block also has two insulated metallic screws which are used to provide the connection between the conductors. When a voltage is applied to the terminal block, the two screws become energized, allowing the connection between the two conductors to be established.

However, this is only the basic working principle. In the case of the T38020-15-0, there are additional features that provide enhanced safety and flexibility. The electro-magnetic interference shielding ensures that there is no interference from the environment, which is often the cause of connection errors and inaccuracies. In addition, the terminal block has a slot for pin or twin clamps, which can be fitted to improve firmness in case any excessive vibration occurs.

In summary, the T38020-15-0 is a great choice for applications needing reliable and safe electrical connections between two circuits with different voltage potentials. Its insulated and electro-magnetic interference shielding provide safety, while the pin and twin clamps provide extra flexibility and improved performance. This makes it the ideal choice for a variety of different applications, from Automation through to Industrial.
