T38430-17-0

Terminal blocks, also called connectors, are a type of electrical connection device widely used in various industries. Barrier blocks, or Euro style blocks, are a kind of terminal block that uses jumper wires to interconnect the terminals. The T38430-17-0 is one such barrier block with specific features that are suitable for various applications.

T38430-17-0 barrier blocks are made of Polyamide PA66-V0. This plastic material is flame resistant and has a lighting response as per UL94V-0. These blocks come with screw terminal variants that have multiple connecting possibilities and bus bars that can act as a ground connection.

T38430-17-0 blocks have a pitch of 7.62 mm, with 17 mm length, and 8 mm width. The two ends of the blocks have pre-installed metal caps that are designed for flexibility during the installation process. The optional ground terminal at the middle of the block can provide overcurrent protection.

The T38430-17-0 barrier blocks can be used in many applications, such as the automotive industry, marine industry, and household appliances. With a temperature range of -40 to 105℃, they are suitable for difficult working conditions. The terminal blocks are also capable of carrying medium current and voltage applications up to 16A/460V AC.

The working principle of the T38430-17-0 barrier blocks is to connect two circuits electrically by a jumper wire. The two ends of the blocks are secured together with screws, and the jumper wire connects them in the middle. This allows signals and data to be transmitted from one circuit to the other in a safe manner. The ground terminal in the middle of the blocks provides extra protection and insulation from high voltage or over current.

In conclusion, the T38430-17-0 barrier blocks can be effectively used in multiple industries for a variety of applications. It is made of flame resistant material and features a temperature range of -40 to 105℃. The blocks’ terminal design and bus bars offer versatile connection possibilities, and its ground terminal provides over current protection.
