Terminal strips meet revised glow-wire standard

Europa terminal strip connectors are available with an enhanced housing material that complies with revised glow-wire testing standards of the DIN 60335-1 standard for consumer appliances. The new version is constructed using an improved polyamide material that provides the extended flammability protection.

Designed to provide secure electrical connections mounted to a flat surface, the screw-clamp terminal strips are available with 1 to 12 connections in five sizes to accommodate a range of current ratings and wire gauges: Type 4 (up to 20 A/600 V for 22 to 14 AWG), Type 6 (up to 20 A/600 V for 22 to 12 AWG), Type 10 (up to 40 A/600 V for 22 to 10 AWG), Type 16 (up to 65 A/600V for 22 to 8 AWG), and Type 20 (up to 75 A/600 V for 22 to 4 AWG). Additionally, all of the connector types are available with an optional protective guard inside the clamping body to prevent damage to the connected wire — especially useful for stranded wire. Marking accessories are also available for all sizes.
