Phoenix Contact PT 6 Feed-Through Terminal Block, 2-Conductor, 0.5-10mm², Grey

The Phoenix Contact PT 6 is a professional-grade 2-conductor feed-through terminal block engineered for robust and reliable electrical connectivity. Designed to facilitate efficient wiring in industrial control cabinets and automation systems, this component ensures a secure connection for conductors ranging from 0.5 mm² to 10 mm². Its compact design and high-performance push-in technology make it an essential element for modern electrical infrastructure requiring consistent power distribution.

Advantages

The primary benefit of this terminal block is its advanced push-in connection technology, which allows for tool-free insertion of rigid wires or ferrules, significantly reducing installation time. The design provides high contact quality and vibration resistance, ensuring long-term stability in demanding environments. Its compact width of 8.2 mm optimizes space within control panels, while the high voltage and current ratings accommodate a wide range of industrial power requirements.

Suitable for

• Industrial automation control panels
• Power distribution systems
• Electrical infrastructure projects
• Machine building and manufacturing equipment

When it may not be suitable

This terminal block is not intended for use with conductors outside the specified cross-section range of 0.5 mm² to 10 mm². It is also not suitable for environments requiring specialized explosion-proof certifications unless specifically rated for such conditions.

Key specifications

• Connection method: Push-in connection
• Nominal voltage: 1000 V
• Nominal current: 41 A
• Conductor cross-section: 0.5 mm² - 10 mm²
• AWG range: 20 - 8
• Width: 8.2 mm
• Height: 42.2 mm
• Mounting type: NS 35/7,5 and NS 35/15 DIN rails
• Color: Gray

How to use

To install the terminal block, snap it onto a standard NS 35/7,5 or NS 35/15 DIN rail. Strip the insulation from your conductor to the appropriate length. Insert the wire directly into the push-in contact point until it is fully seated. For flexible wires without ferrules, use a screwdriver to actuate the push-in mechanism before inserting the conductor. Ensure the connection is secure by performing a light pull test.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify that the DIN rail type in your cabinet matches the mounting specifications.
• Ensure the wire gauge used in your installation falls within the 20-8 AWG range.
• Check that the total current and voltage requirements of your circuit do not exceed the rated 41 A and 1000 V.

Usage recommendations

Always ensure that the power supply is disconnected before performing any wiring or maintenance on the terminal block to prevent electrical hazards.
