• Color: Blue

How to use

To use the Phoenix Contact 1028361, first ensure the DIN rail adapter is securely installed in your control cabinet. Snap the distribution block onto the adapter until it clicks into place. Prepare your conductors by stripping the insulation to the required length. Insert the solid or ferrule-equipped stranded wire directly into the push-in terminal point until it is fully seated. To release the wire, use a standard screwdriver to actuate the release mechanism.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify that your wire gauge falls within the 0.2 mm² to 6 mm² range.
• Ensure the 32 A current rating meets your circuit requirements.
• Confirm that you have the necessary DIN rail adapter for mounting.
• Check the available space in your cabinet to accommodate the 6.2 mm width per block.

Usage recommendations

Always ensure that the power supply is disconnected before performing any wiring operations. Use appropriate wire ferrules for stranded conductors to ensure optimal contact quality and safety.
