Problems with the terminal blocks
Thread Content
No on-site experience. . I’ve never really understood connection terminals; I often hear people mention things like Phoenix, NHK, and so on If some experts could give some advice, which of those types are more commonly used and better. Price, advantages and disadvantages, etc
Looking for answers too. . . . Each terminal block is arranged individually. . Are there any relevant materials available for study?
The terminal blocks used on-site mainly include pin-type, open-type, and round-hole types. In terms of brands, there are Phoenix, Molex, and Siemens. Overall, the terminals from Phoenix seem to be the best – they are quick-connect type and the wiring is very secure; it’s just that the price is a bit higher.
Being more expensive isn’t the key. The key is that I don’t know. . I’m not sure what type of terminals there are. Their respective advantages and disadvantages, and so on. . By the way, I’d like to recommend this inspirational book, \"The Secret\": the universal laws that can change one’s life destiny. There are several ideas in the book that I find to be very practical – know, think, do, achieve: victory:
Quick-connect terminal blocks are convenient to install, but contact problems may arise over time; screw-mounted connections are more reliable.
I heard this from a friend who was there. That’s indeed the case. He doesn’t dare use quick-connect terminals for the power circuit: loveliness:
It’s definitely better to tighten the power cables. However, those control wires, especially the digital switches, are much more convenient with quick-connect connectors.
Ah, dear everyone**, during operation, terminal blocks generate heat due to the effect of electric current; or poor contact can occur as a result of loose bolts used to secure them, which also leads to heating. What is the normal range for this heating temperature? Thank you all**
I’ve learned about it~. The two common brands of terminals that are often mentioned are Phoenix and Weidmüller; power engineering firms require these brands in their tender documents. I just don’t know the advantages, disadvantages, and differences between these two brands. I do know that they are expensive
The type of terminal to use is determined based on the cost of the equipment; using too expensive ones is unaffordable, so I usually opt for domestic ones.
