are stackable end-to-end without loss of centerline spacing. New Terminal Block Implementation LED Light Several vendors introduce lately solutions for the booming LED lightening industry. New PCB connector adapters SMT usually, enable the quick, easy, and secure connection of flexible LED PCBs when combined with series of connectors. The PCB adapters can be used as an extension, as a corner connection, or as a T-distributor. The white PCB adapters are designed for 2- and 4-position applications with 8- or 10-mm-wide LED strips. UL-approved materials ensure that they can be safely used in applications requiring UL approval. Features and benefits of the newly solution supporting LED strips are :Tool-free termination saves time and cost while reducing errors, High-current capacity enables long LED strips to be connected without an

Offering a wide variety of industry standardoptionsprovidesmanufacturing and installation personnel new freedom in product design while maintaining intuitive operation and a lower installed cost. Selection of models for PCB mounting, DIN Rail support, color selection, different connection method (screw, fast connection) , labeling option , support of popular wire gages based on application help user to find the proper solution. Typical terminal Block connectors feature various wire termination methods including rising cage clamp, wire protector, spring, IDC and crimp snap. The design of Terminal Block connectors consists of one-piece board mount terminal blocks and two-piece plug connectors with mating straight and right-angle shrouded headers. A special version - which can be mated either 90° or 180° - completes the product line. Board mount connectors, as well as pc board plugs and headers,

A terminal block is one method of connecting a selection of different electrical wires. They come in a variety of shapes and sizes so you can normally find one that will be compatible with whatever project you are carrying out. However, the difference between blocks can lead to problems if an incorrect type is used or if it is not connected properly. Terminal blocks are widely used in some major industries where wiring between equipment’s widely used. Major application and industries widely adopted TBs are Industrial Controls, HVAC equipment and controls, building automation, Communications equipment, Test and Measurement, Fire & Security, Lightning. Use of TBs for connection simplifies wire termination and removal from contacts. Allows easy and cost-effective servicing of PCB or Wire-termination corrections Prevents over-insertion of wire, compact design allows for flexibility to meet unique design requirements.
