YD1601500000G

Terminal blocks, also known as terminal boards, connectors, or screw terminals, are used to terminate wires and cables. They offer an efficient and versatile way to accomplish wire termination and are available in a range of different formats and sizes to suit a wide variety of applications. Terminal blocks with a wire-to-board connection type can be used for a broad range of applications, including telecommunications, industrial control, automation, and consumer electronics.

YD1601500000G is a compact wire-to-board terminal block designed for high current density applications. It is rated to carry 16A and operate at up to 500V AC per contact. The terminal block is UL-listed and meets CSA C22.2 NO. 158, VDE0660, EN60999, and IEC60999 standards and is suitable for use in many industrial applications such as air conditioning, water purification, drainage, fire control and power distribution.

The YD1601500000G terminal block features spring-cage connections and finger-safe shrouded headers. The spring-cage connections provide a secure and reliable connection which helps minimize the risk of resistance, heat production, and arcing. The shrouded headers also ensure that live parts are protected against accidental contact. The terminal block is available in 4 pole, 6 pole, 8 pole and 10 pole configurations, and the individual poles accept stranded and solid wires with an insulation diameter of 0.2 to 1.5mm.

The working principle of the YD1601500000G terminal block is quite simple. The electrical contact is made by pressing the wire into the spring-cage terminal which results in a secure and reliable connection. This connection is then tightened by the header screws. The contact pressure of the spring-cage terminal ensures good electrical contact and prevents incidental contact with live parts. The terminal block also makes use of insulation displacement contacts (IDC) which can provide a lower-resistance connection than traditional solder contacts and eliminate the need for soldering.

The YD1601500000G terminal block is a great choice for medium to high current density applications, such as lights, electric motors, fire alarm systems, and HVAC systems. Its spring-cage connections ensure a reliable and secure connection for the application, while its finger-safe shrouded headers provide protection against incidental contact. Its small size and insulation displacement contacts make it an excellent choice for a variety of applications.
