An ground terminal block is a protective feed-through terminal with PE function (ground), i.e. an electrically conductive connection to the DIN rail / DIN mounting rails. The protective earth terminal blocks have one or more connection points and are available as single-level PE terminal blocks, multi-level ground terminal block (double-level terminal blocks and three-level terminal blocks). Some of our terminals in combination with our DIN rails / top-hat rails offer the possibility of separating the PEN conductor, i.e. the PEN function within the switchgear.
DIN rails and C profiles can also be used as protective earth busbars (PE conductors) or PEN conductors under certain conditions. Weidmüller's PE ground terminal with spring and screw connections meet the requirements for PE wires specified in IEC 60947-7-2. According to VDE 0100 Part 540, protective earth conductors and neutral conductors with wire cross-sections above 10 mm2 may be combined to form a conductor abbreviated as PEN.
PE earthing terminal for DIN rails with innovative SNAP IN technology revolutionizes control cabinet construction. Direct connection of flexible wires without ferrules reduces wire preparation and wiring.
Thanks to the extensive range of accessories and various cross-connection options, you can solve any requirement with our ground terminals and protective earth terminal blocks in PUSH IN connection technology.
The PE terminal block or ground wire disconnect terminal block with proven tension clamp technology is suitable for particularly compact but nevertheless clearly arranged control cabinet assembly. Its incredibly high degree of flexibility makes the tension clamp an excellent connection alternative for the electrical connection of flexible and solid wires.
The high reliability and wide range of variants of ground disconnect terminal blocks and PE protective earth terminal blocks with clamping yoke connection ensure relief in planning and maximum safety in operation with and without wire end ferrules.
