tilslutningsklemme

A tilslutningsklemme, often translated as a terminal block or connection terminal, is a modular, insulated device used to connect electrical wires. It serves as a secure and organized point for joining multiple conductors, allowing for easier installation, maintenance, and modification of electrical circuits.

These terminals are typically made of metal connectors housed within a plastic or ceramic insulator. The metal part provides a reliable electrical contact, while the insulator prevents short circuits and ensures safety. Wires are usually inserted into the terminal and secured by screws, spring clips, or a screwless push-in mechanism.

Tilslutningsklemmer are widely used in various electrical applications, including industrial control panels, building wiring, power supplies, and automotive systems. They offer a standardized and safe method for terminating wires, making electrical connections more robust and less prone to failure than direct wire-to-wire splicing. Their modular design allows for easy expansion or reconfiguration of electrical systems. The choice of tilslutningsklemme depends on factors such as the type and gauge of wires, the required current and voltage ratings, and the environmental conditions of the installation.
