Terminal is a type of accessory product used to achieve electrical connections and is part of the connector. Narrowly defined terminals refer to a piece of metal enclosed in insulating plastic, with holes at both ends for inserting wires. The broad term terminal refers to a connector, which is also referred to as a wiring terminal.

There are various types and models of wiring terminals. Among them, there are several common types of terminals:

1. Pluggable terminal blocks

It is composed of two parts that are plugged and connected, with one part compressing the wire and then inserting it into the other part, which is welded to the PCB board. The bottom mechanical principle of this connection ensures the long-term airtight connection of the product and the reliability of the finished product through this anti vibration design.

2. Fence type terminal blocks

It is able to achieve safe, reliable, and effective connections, especially in environments with high currents and voltages, which are widely used.

3. Spring type terminal blocks

It is a new type of wiring terminal that utilizes spring based devices and has been widely used in the world's electrical and electronic engineering industries: lighting, elevator lift control, instrumentation, power supply, chemistry, and automotive power.

4. Rail type terminal blocks

The use of crimping and unique thread self-locking design ensures reliable and safe wiring connections. The appearance design of this series of wiring terminals is beautiful and generous, and can be equipped with various accessories, such as short circuit strips, identification strips, and baffles.

5. Wall mounted terminal blocks

Adopting screw connection wire technology, the insulation material is PA66 (flame retardant grade: UL94, V-0), and the connector is made of high-quality high conductivity metal material.
