Ühendusplokk

Ühendusplokk, often translated as junction box or terminal block, is a component used in electrical installations to safely connect and terminate wires. Its primary function is to provide a secure and organized point for joining multiple electrical conductors, preventing loose connections and potential hazards.

These blocks typically consist of a casing, usually made of insulating material like plastic or bakelite, and a series of metal terminals or connectors. Wires are inserted into the terminals and secured, often by screws or a clamping mechanism. This ensures a reliable electrical connection and simplifies the wiring process.

Ühendusplokid are found in a wide range of applications, from residential and commercial building wiring to industrial machinery and automotive systems. They are essential for distributing power, branching circuits, and making connections that may need to be accessed for maintenance or modifications. Different types of ühendusplokid exist, varying in size, number of terminals, and the type of connection method they employ, to suit specific electrical requirements and environments. Their use contributes significantly to the safety, reliability, and maintainability of electrical systems.
