Barrier strips, also called barrier strip connectors, are a type of electrical connector designed to terminate wires and create organised and secure connections. They comprise a series of screw terminals separated by insulating barriers. A barrier strip provides reliable and safe electrical connections and can accommodate a range of wire sizes. Barrier strips are essential in applications requiring secure, durable, and neat wiring. These strips come in different rows, pitches, voltage ratings, and barrier configurations, such as a dual-barrier strip and a tri-barrier strip.
Why Buy Barrier Strips?
Barrier strip connectors offer a simple, cost-effective, and reliable solution by providing a secure connection. The clear safety cover on many barrier strips helps prevent accidental contact with live wires, further enhancing safety. Additionally, they are also easy to install, versatile, and require no special tools, making troubleshooting and maintenance easier.
Check Our Range of Barrier Strips:
We offer a variety of barrier strips based on their body orientations, including:
- Straight Barrier Strips – These are the most common barrier strips with the wire entry in line with the mounting surface. They are suitable for general-purpose applications and provide secure and organised connections.
- Right Angle Barrier Strips – These barrier strips have the wire entry at a 90-degree angle to the mounting surface. A right-angle barrier strip saves space and provides easy access in compact or tight installations. The right-angle configuration is ideal for applications where cables and wires need to be routed at a right angle.
- Vertical Barrier Strips – These terminal block barrier strips are designed for vertical mounting, ensuring clear and accessible wiring paths. Their sturdy construction and perpendicular orientation make them ideal for vertical mounting on PCBs or control boards.
Typical Uses of Barrier Strips:
Barrier strips are used in a wide variety of applications, including:
- Power Distribution
- Industrial Control
- Telecommunications
- Surge Protectors & Speakers
- Automotive Systems
- Household Appliances.
