Hit The Ground Running

These terminal blocks are an ideal choice for compact junctions boxes having limitations of space and height. A major advantage of angular terminal blocks over the top wire terminal blocks is that their profile remains the same across the entire range of feed-through, multiple connection, ground, and ground multiple terminal blocks.

Besides having angular wire entry, these terminal blocks have specially designed alloy feet which help in achieving very low contact resistance and vibration proof grounding with DIN rails. The are green/yellow color coded as per industry standards.

Additional Advantages Include:

Angular entry of wires, saving in conductor length
Marking/identification facility at the center (top) of the block
Multiplication of connections through bridging
Step down shorting links are used for shorting spring clamp terminal blocks of different sizes

New Modular Power Distribution System to Simplify Existing Wiring Methods!

admin2 — Thu, 06 May 2010 17:05:08 +0000

Modular APD System

The modular APD system provides flexible solutions for busing common power to many different electrical components. Components can be easily added or removed using quick disconnects, saving valuable time and cost during installation and maintenance. The APD system also provides an organized method of wiring that would simplify the wiring schematics for troubleshooting while reducing the use of excessive wires and cables.

The APD system allows multiple connections per phase for many applications, such as:

Supplying separate voltages to auxiliary circuits and control circuits for relays, contactors, timers, etc.
Supplying power to circuit breakers, motor starters, switches, contactors, etc.

Two conductors are housed within a rigid plastic insulation housing suitable for voltages up to 600VAC. The conductors have current ratings of 25A, 63A or 80A. The entire system is touch proof (IP20).
