Product Overview: IEC 1492-P Fused Terminal Blocks
This innovative push-in connection technology delivers significant time savings through improved wiring efficiency. Push-in terminal blocks from the 1492-P series offer increased connection accuracy and reliability, ensuring a high-quality connection without the need for double-checking.
Using an automated lug making machine, installation can be 65 percent faster than connecting screw-type terminal blocks—a saving of 26 seconds per terminal block. This represents a savings of over seven hours for every 1,000 connected terminal blocks. Not only does productivity increase significantly, but the resulting connections eliminate vibration-induced failure of screw terminals. Push-in connections significantly exceed UL standards for retractable connections.
The 1492-P series push-in terminals offer panel builders, OEMs, and other large-scale users cost savings—not only by increasing connection speed but also by eliminating the need for connection adjustments and screw torque testing. They are available in a wide range of standard and custom designs, including a unique control power distribution terminal block.
