Phoenix Contact USLKG 10 N Protective Conductor Terminal Block, Yellow/Green

The Phoenix Contact USLKG 10 N is a professional-grade protective conductor terminal block engineered for reliable grounding in electrical systems. Designed for high mechanical stability and secure electrical contact, this terminal block is a standard solution for establishing a protective earth connection on DIN rails. Its robust construction ensures long-term performance in demanding industrial environments, providing a clear visual indication of its grounding function through its distinctive yellow and green color coding.

Advantages

This terminal block offers exceptional reliability due to its high-quality screw connection technology, which ensures a vibration-resistant and gas-tight contact for conductors ranging from 0.5 mm² to 16 mm². The design facilitates easy installation on various DIN rail profiles, making it a versatile choice for complex control cabinet configurations. Its compact width allows for efficient space utilization without compromising the integrity of the protective earth circuit.

Suitable for

• Industrial control panels
• Power distribution systems
• Automation equipment grounding
• Electrical installations requiring DIN rail mounting

This terminal block may not be suitable for applications involving extremely high-frequency signals where specific shielding requirements exceed standard grounding capabilities. It is also not intended for use in environments where the conductor cross-section exceeds 16 mm² or falls below 0.5 mm².

Key specifications

• Connection method: Screw connection
• Number of connections: 2
• Cross-section range: 0.5 mm² to 16 mm² (AWG 20 - 6)
• Width: 10.2 mm
• Height: 45.8 mm
• Mounting compatibility: NS 35/7.5, NS 35/15, NS 32
• Color: Green-yellow

To use the terminal block, snap it onto the compatible DIN rail and insert the stripped conductor into the terminal point. Tighten the screw to the specified torque to ensure a secure mechanical and electrical connection. Ensure that the DIN rail itself is properly grounded to the main protective earth bus of the installation to maintain system safety.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify that your DIN rail type matches the supported profiles (NS 35/7.5, NS 35/15, or NS 32).
• Ensure the conductor cross-section is within the 0.5 mm² to 16 mm² range.
• Confirm that the 10.2 mm width fits within your existing terminal block assembly.

Usage recommendations: Always use appropriate ferrules for stranded wires to ensure optimal contact quality and prevent strand damage during screw tightening. Regularly inspect connections in high-vibration environments to maintain long-term system integrity.
