Barrier Blocks - T38332-20-0 application field and working principle

Barrier Blocks, such as the T38332-20-0, are composed of a base plate, connecting clamps, terminals, strips and springs. The purpose of a barrier block is to provide a secure connection to terminals in a range of applications, such as in control panels, systems, machines, devices and equipment. It is easy to install and connect, and can prevent accidental contact on the terminal.

The T38332-20-0 is a solution specially designed for the application fields of control technology, automation, measuring and testing technology and home automation. It has a length of 20 mm and a width of 11.5 mm. The base plate is made from plastic with excellent outer contact insulation and dielectric resistance properties, while the terminals are made from nickel-plated brass. There is a white contact marking on the end of the connecting clamp for easy identification. The T38332-20-0 also meets the requirements of CSA and UL standard and is qualified for a voltage rating of 250V.

The barrier block works according to the principle of connecting a terminal or carrying current through a single barrier block strip. The strip consists of a number of parallel slots. Each slot is connected to a single line that is divided into two halves and then reconnected to the other side of the strip. This Method creates a barrier between the two halves, preventing any electric current from jumping from one side to the other.

To connect a terminal to a barrier block, the connecting clamp is placed between the two halves of the strip and a terminal is connected to the other end. Once the terminal is connected, the clamp is tightened and the two halves are connected securely. The connected terminals are insulated from each other, thus preventing any accidental contact on them.

The T38332-20-0 is a reliable barrier block that can provide excellent electrical insulation and protect the connected terminals from potential damage and corrosion. It is easy to install and use, making it an ideal solution for a wide range of applications.
