PAKPLAST branch terminal plate PTO4X16 — 4 × 16 mm² electrical connector

PAKPLAST PTO4X16 — 4 × 16 mm² electrical connector is a compact branch terminal plate designed to provide four outgoing connections for 16 mm² conductors. It is intended for secure branching and distribution of power inside panels, enclosures and junction boxes. The plate supports neat wiring layouts and helps organize multiple outgoing lines from a single incoming conductor in residential, commercial and light industrial installations.

Advantages

The branch terminal plate offers a space-efficient solution for splitting a main conductor into four separate 16 mm² circuits while maintaining stable electrical contact and mechanical retention. Its construction simplifies installation and reduces the need for additional individual connectors or bulky distribution blocks. The product is compatible with typical copper conductors of matching cross-section and is suitable for mounting inside electrical panels and enclosures where compact multi‑way termination is required.

Suitable for

• Distributing power from a single 16 mm² supply conductor to four outgoing 16 mm² circuits
• Use inside electrical panels, distribution boxes and enclosures
• Residential, commercial and light industrial wiring where compact branching is needed
• Situations requiring tidy, space-saving multi‑way terminations

When it may not be suitable

This branch terminal plate is designed specifically for 16 mm² conductors and four outgoing connections; it is not suitable for conductors of significantly larger or smaller cross-sections without appropriate adapters or different terminal types. It is intended for use in enclosed installations and is not a replacement for connectors specified for exposed outdoor, direct-burial or specialized high-vibration applications unless additional protective measures and appropriate mounting are applied.

Key specifications

• Number of outgoing connections: 4
• Supported conductor cross-section per connection: 16 mm²
• Application: branch/distribution terminal for panel and enclosure installations
• Material characteristics: conductive metal contacts with insulating mounting plate (see manufacturer for full material details)
• Mounting: panel/enclosure mounting compatible; compact footprint for space-saving installations

How to use

Install the branch terminal plate inside the panel or enclosure on a suitable mounting surface. Prepare the conductors by stripping the insulation to the length recommended for reliable clamping. Insert the incoming 16 mm² conductor into the designated input point and secure it according to the terminal tightening instructions using the appropriate tool and torque. Insert the four outgoing 16 mm² conductors into the outgoing terminals and tighten securely. Verify mechanical retention and continuity with a suitable meter before energizing the circuit, and ensure that all live parts are insulated or placed behind protective covers as required by local electrical codes.

What to consider before purchase

• Confirm conductor size: intended for 16 mm² conductors only
• Check compatibility with your panel/enclosure mounting space and layout
• Verify that the terminal design and materials meet the applicable local electrical standards for your installation

Usage recommendations

Use proper crimping or cable preparation tools, tighten terminals to the recommended torque, and follow local electrical codes. For installations with environmental exposure, vibration, or higher current demands, consult technical specifications and consider protective measures or alternative connector types.
