Terminal Blocks - Barrier Blocks

T38368-18-0 is a type of barrier block that is commonly used in electronics and electrical applications. It is typically employed in a panel mount configuration and offers an easy, reliable, and secure method of interconnecting two or more conductors. It is particularly useful in applications in which wire splices can be difficult or inapplicable, such as in low-voltage inverter systems.

Overview

At its most basic, the T38368-18-0 consists of a mounting tab, a metal body, a plastic insulating barrier block, and a variety of fasteners. The metal body forms the basis of the electrical current path. It typically includes screw-clamp terminals, a fixed load barrier, and an adjustable load barrier. The plastic insulation barrier block further divides the metal body into multiple electrical channels, allowing the user to create different circuits and configurations with the barrier block. The barrier block also serves to protect against electrical shock and shorts. Lastly, the mounting tab provides a secure and permanent connection between the barrier block and the enclosure.

Installation

Installing the T38368-18-0 requires no specialized tools and is relatively straightforward. In most cases, the barrier block is mounted on either the enclosure wall or the door panel. The body is placed in the enclosure and the mounting tab is secured with screws. The terminals are then passed through the plastic insulation barrier block and secured with stainless steel fasteners. The last step is to attach the connection wires to the terminals and connect the other side of the wires to the load.

Working Principle

The working principle of the T38368-18-0 is based on the fact that the metal body is divided into multiple channels by the plastic insulation barrier block. Each channel contains one or more screw-clamp terminals, a fixed or adjustable load barrier, and a variety of connection wires. When a voltage is applied to the terminals, the barrier blocks direct the electrical current to the correct channel, creating a secure and separate electrical path. If a wire becomes disconnected or breaks, the faulty connection is also separated and the proper connection is maintained.

Application Field

The T38368-18-0 is commonly used in many different industries and applications. Due to its secure and reliable connection, it is often used in industrial automation, machine design, robotics, and various other electrical applications. It is also an ideal solution for creating secure and reliable circuits in power supplies, lighting systems, electronic components, and other low-voltage applications.
