Terminal blocks are electric wiring and connection components that connect different electrical circuits used in electrical power distribution, control, signal processing and electronic instrumentation systems. They are also known as barrier blocks, power blocks, or wire junction blocks. Barrier blocks are one type of terminal blocks that are often in the form of strips that can be mounted to a flat surface, baseboard, or DIN rail.

The YK3051203000G terminal block is a type of barrier block that contains two power floating circuits. It is designed with an integrated ground connection that reduces the need for splices and provides secure connections when ground wires must be routed into a circuit. This terminal block also features two spring-loaded barrier structures with an adjustable sliding plate for easier connection. The YK3051203000G Barrier Block consists of a base and a bridge covering that permit easy access to, and interconnection of, the individual cables.

This terminal block is suitable for a wide range of applications in industrial, automation, medical, and transportation, including providing power connection or signal between process control equipment and field units, connecting power, control, and signal wires and cables in process control systems, and subjecting wires and cables to extended strain relief.

Working Principle

The YK3051203000G barrier block uses a locking system to securely fasten two power or control cables. The block is composed of two distinct parts: the base and bridge. The base contains two separate slots, one for each cable. A plastic bridge covers the slots and provides a secure locking mechanism. The bridge slides along the top of the slot, locking in place with a quick-connect mechanism. Once the cables are in place, the bridge is locked using an angled latch.

The YK3051203000G terminal block also includes an integrated floating ground connection. The floating ground connection is a metal plate connected to the bottom of the bridge. The floating ground connection is secured to the bridge using a washer and a set screw. This provides additional protection for the connection.

The YK3051203000G barrier block is designed for efficient and reliable connections and is easy to install. A simple tool such as a screwdriver is all that is needed for installation. The block also has a high impact rating, making it suitable for other rugged applications.
