Types of Terminals

With the rise of the electronics industry, more and more products are used in terminal blocks and their applications are becoming more extensive. In fact, the terminal is a kind of accessory product used to realize the electrical connection, which is divided into the category of the connector in the industry. Many people are not very familiar with the types of terminals.

Generally, there are six types of terminals:

Types of Terminals

1. Plug-in

It is formed by two parts plugging and unplugging. One part presses the wire tightly and then plugs it into the other part, which is soldered to the PCB board. The mechanical principle of the connection bottom and the anti-vibration design ensure the long-term airtight connection of the product and the reliability of the finished product. Mounting ears can be added to both ends of the socket. The mounting ears can protect the splices to a large extent and avoid the lack of proper placement of the splices. At the same time, this socket design can ensure that the socket can be correctly inserted into the mother's body. The socket can also have a device buckle and confirm buckle. The buckle of the device can be more firmly fixed to the PCB board, and the buckle can be determined after the device is completed to determine the mother's body and socket. A variety of socket designs can be equipped with different matrix insertion methods, such as horizontal, straight or skewed printed circuit boards, etc., and different methods can be selected according to customer requirements. You can choose either metric wire gauge or standard wire gauge. It is the most popular terminal type on the market.

2. Fence

It can complete a safe, reliable, and useful connection, especially in the application environment of high current and high voltage.

3. Stretch spring

It is a new type of terminal block that uses a spring-loaded device. It has been widely used in the international electrical and electronic engineering industries: lighting, elevator control, instrumentation, power supply, chemistry, and automobile power.

4. Track device

It adopts reliable thread connection technology, electronic fuse technology, and the latest electrical connection technology, and is widely used in power electronics, communications, electrical control, and power supply fields.

5. Track type

The use of crimping and common thread self-locking design makes the connection of the wiring firm and safe. The appearance design of this series of terminal blocks is beautiful and generous and can be equipped with a variety of accessories, such as short-circuit strips, identification strips, baffles, etc.

6, through the wall

Using screw connection technology, the insulation material is PA66 (flame retardant grade: UL94, V-0), and the connector is made of high-quality and highly conductive metal materials.
