Basic performance of terminal blocks

Terminal blocks Mechanical Connector

The terminal block is a type of connector for the convenience of electrical wire connection. It is said that a device connecting two active devices transmits current or a signal. Its role is very simple: to bridge the communication between the blocked or isolated circuits in the circuit, so that the current flows, so that the circuit achieves the intended function.
      The basic performance of the terminals is mainly mechanical, electrical and environmental properties.
First, mechanical properties
      Mechanical properties mainly include the insertion force and the mechanical life of the connector. The insertion force and mechanical life of the terminal are related to the plating quality (sliding friction coefficient) of the contact structure (positive pressure) and the dimensional accuracy (alignment) of the contact arrangement.
Second, electrical performance
      The terminal is used as a connector. The first performance must of course be electrical performance, including: contact resistance, insulation resistance and electrical strength.
      1. Contact resistance: High quality electrical connectors should have low and stable contact resistance.
      2. Insulation resistance: an indicator for measuring the insulation performance between the contacts of the terminal and between the contact and the outer casing.
      3, anti-electric strength: is the withstand voltage, dielectric withstand voltage.
Third, the environmental performance
     Common environmental properties include: temperature resistance, moisture resistance, salt spray resistance, vibration and shock.
