The Phoenix Contact through-conductor terminal UK 10 N is an industrial connection terminal for use in electrical control systems. It is designed for secure and durable connection of cables with a cross-section of 0.5 mm² to 16 mm². The terminal is designed for mounting on standard support rails of types NS 35/7.5, NS 35/15, and NS 32, enabling flexible integration into existing enclosures and distributors. The grey colouring corresponds to the typical design of Phoenix Contact products and ensures good visibility in the enclosure.

Applications

The terminal is suitable for use in industrial plants, machine construction, automation technology, and electrical distribution systems. It is frequently used in enclosures to securely connect cables and transmit electrical signals or power. The rated voltage of 800 V and rated current of 57 A make it suitable for medium to high loads in industrial environments. The terminal is designed for indoor use and meets safety and reliability requirements in electrical installations.

Functions and Equipment in Detail

The UK 10 N features two connections secured by a screw connection. This enables a mechanically stable and electrically reliable connection, even under vibration and mechanical stress. The rated cross-section is 10 mm², making the terminal suitable for cables with a cross-section up to 16 mm². The terminal is designed for use with cables in the cross-section range of 0.5 mm² to 16 mm², making it flexible for various applications. Mounting is on support rails conforming to standards NS 35/7.5, NS 35/15, and NS 32, enabling universal use in various enclosure configurations.

Technology Explained Simply

The screw connection ensures that the cable is securely held in the connection and a reliable electrical contact is guaranteed. The terminal is designed to prevent loosening even under high mechanical loads. The rated voltage of 800 V and rated current of 57 A are the maximum values the terminal can safely transmit without overheating or damage. The grey colour is typical for industrial terminals and supports clarity in the enclosure.

Compatibility and Accessories

The terminal is compatible with various support rails, including NS 35/7.5, NS 35/15, and NS 32. Suitable accessories include end holders for support rails, through-conductor terminals, test plug sockets, terminal markers, toothed strips, fixed bridges, step links, and various support rail variants. These components allow individual adaptation of enclosure configurations. Using accessories such as end holders or toothed strips can simplify mounting and improve clarity.

Mounting and Installation

Mounting is done by securing the terminal onto a support rail, where it is positioned and fixed using integrated retaining clips. Cables are inserted into the connection openings and tightened using the screw connection. Mounting requires no additional tools other than a screwdriver or suitable wrench. The terminal is designed for quick and secure installation, with flexible positioning on the support rail.

Advantages in Operation

The UK 10 N offers high mechanical stability and electrical reliability. The screw connection ensures a lasting contact, even under vibration. Compatibility with various support rails and the wide cross-section range increases flexibility during planning and installation. The terminal is designed for industrial environments and meets requirements for safety and durability.
