The Difference between Screw Din Rail Terminal Blocks and Push in Spring DIN Rail Terminal Blocks
The Difference between Screw Din Rail Terminal Blocks and Push in Spring DIN Rail Terminal Blocks
Many customers ask what is the difference between the UK series and the PT series, and why are there so many categories when they are also used for wiring?
First of all, let's be clear.What is terminal block in control panel?
Terminal blocks were originally referred to as screw terminals because a screw was used to secure wires to a conducting plate, making an electrical connection. In control systems, terminal blocks are used to connect panel-mounted equipment to power and field wiring.
The following are the wiring patterns for both series


UK series, as the longest and most widely used product, is still accepted and used by most people. Comparatively speaking, the PT series is not as well known as the UK series, but the advantage of the PT series is that no tools are needed, and the wire connection can be achieved by directly inserting the wire.
Moreover, according to our laboratory analysis, the insertion force of the PT series is 50% of that of the UK series, which greatly increases the efficiency of engineers.
Push In Connection Terminal Blocks are more compact than traditional Screw Terminal Blocks.No loosening means maintenance-free application.
Slim models available down to a width of 3.5 mm to help downsize control panels.
Light insertion force and strong holding strength to achieve both less wiring work and high reliability.
'Hands-free' structure that holds an inserted screwdriver to achieve better workability when wiring stranded wires without crimp terminals.
