Overview

The OSTTC032162 is a 3-position, 5.08mm pitch wire-to-board terminal block designed for secure electrical connections on a PCB. It features a horizontal entry orientation with a screw-driven leaf spring mechanism that accommodates wire sizes from 22 AWG to 14 AWG. Rated for 15A and 300V, it provides a reliable interface for power distribution and signal routing in industrial and consumer electronics.

Why Choose This Part

The interlocking side design allows for modular expansion by snapping multiple units together to meet specific pole requirements. The leaf spring wire guard protects fine-stranded wires from damage during screw tightening, ensuring long-term connection stability without the need for ferrules.

Applications

Power Distribution Rails
Connecting external DC power supplies to internal PCB power planes in industrial control systems.
HVAC Control Boards
Terminating thermostat or sensor wiring to a central control unit in building automation.
Motor Controller Interfaces
Providing high-current connections for low-power motor leads or auxiliary power in robotics.
