It is also unlikely that the manufacturers \u00a0will choose the feed-through terminal blocks as early as the design stage. This often leads to manufacturers designing their\u00a0customized solutions out of sheer necessity; thus resulting in problems such as maintaining touch protection or insulating the current bar from the device housing.<\/p>\n<p>The device manufacturers may also face problem obtaining the necessary certification for their devices. If the device is to be used worldwide, IEC 61800-5-1 and UL 1059 certifications are required. Many solutions in the market are unfortunately not adequately certified.<\/p>\n<h2>High Current Feed-through Terminal Blocks<\/h2>\n<p>Phoenix Contact offers an extensive range of high-current feed-through terminal blocks for various applications. You can find both pluggable feed-through terminal blocks and feed-through terminal blocks for permanent connections. The pluggable feed-through terminal blocks permit quick replacement and are thus service-friendly. In addition, the conductors can be preassembled. However, feed-through terminal blocks for permanent connections are more economical.<\/p>\n<p>https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=jCv-bhu7Hzg<\/p>\n<p>Do you know Phoenix Contact has been providing these feed-through terminal blocks for almost three decades?<\/p>\n<p>https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=hQro-OA3pNE<\/p>\n<p>Device manufacturers can choose the connection option to fit the application: fast push-in connectors, T-lox, conventional screw connectors, or simple bolt connectors. The connection areas range from 4 to 150 mm2 and the current-carrying capacity is up to 309 A.<\/p>\n<p>These connectors come in standard and moulded designs, either with horizontal or vertical connection directions. The moulded version ensures high leakage resistance, even when a small amount of moulding compound is used. The product range provides various connection options for space-saving connections in all installation locations. This means that device manufacturers can flexibly select the connection type, direction, and cross section.<\/p>\n<p>Interested to find out more?
