Simet LPA12-4 Thermoplastic Screw Terminal Strip, 4mm2, 12-Pole, Transparent

The Simet LPA12-4 is a professional 12-pole screw terminal strip engineered for secure and efficient electrical connections. Constructed from high-quality thermoplastic material, this terminal block offers excellent durability and insulation properties for various wiring applications. It is specifically designed to accommodate conductors with a cross-section of 4mm2, ensuring a stable and reliable electrical path. The inclusion of integrated washers helps to prevent damage to the wires during tightening, promoting a long-lasting connection in junction boxes and control panels.

Advantages

This terminal strip provides a robust solution for organizing electrical circuits due to its 12-pole configuration, which allows for multiple connections in a single compact unit. The transparent thermoplastic housing enables visual inspection of the wire insertion, ensuring that conductors are correctly seated and secured. Its design facilitates quick and easy installation, making it a preferred choice for professionals who require consistent performance and safety in their electrical distribution systems.

Suitable for

• Electrical junction boxes
• Control panel wiring
• General electrical installations
• Building automation systems

When it may not be suitable

This terminal strip is not intended for use in high-vibration environments where screw-type connections might loosen over time without additional locking mechanisms. It is also not suitable for applications involving wire sizes significantly larger or smaller than the specified 4mm2 capacity, as this could compromise the integrity of the electrical contact.

Key specifications

• Number of poles: 12
• Conductor capacity: 4mm2
• Material: Thermoplastic
• Design: Screw terminal with integrated washers
• Color: Transparent

How to use

To use the Simet LPA12-4, first strip the insulation from the ends of your electrical wires to the appropriate length. Loosen the screws on the terminal strip, insert the conductor into the desired pole, and tighten the screw firmly to ensure the wire is held securely by the integrated washer. Ensure that no bare wire is exposed outside the terminal block to prevent short circuits. The strip can be cut to the required number of poles if a smaller configuration is needed for your specific installation.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify that the 4mm2 wire size matches your project requirements.
• Ensure the installation environment is compatible with thermoplastic materials.
• Check the available space in your junction box or control panel.

Usage recommendations

Always ensure the power supply is disconnected before performing any electrical work. Periodically inspect terminal connections in high-use environments to ensure screws remain tight and the thermoplastic housing remains free of cracks or heat damage.
