KONNECT-IT KN-P Series Screwless Terminal Blocks
An overview of the KN-P Series screwless terminal blocks, featuring push-in technology for efficient wire connections.
Overview
The KONNECT-IT screwless terminal blocks utilize push-in technology, significantly reducing connection time by eliminating the need for tools when installing solid, ferrule-ended, and some stranded wires. Wires can be connected by simply pressing the orange button to open the terminal. To release a wire, press the orange button again. These terminal blocks are available in single-, double-, and triple-level configurations, including options with diodes, LED indication, multiple terminals per side, and grounding blocks. They meet the highest UL94 V0 flammability rating, enabling a wide range of applications. The single-level terminal blocks are offered in 52 mm, 65 mm, 78 mm, and 91 mm lengths, providing flexibility for various installation needs.
Single-Level Feed-Through, with Diode(s), or with LED Indication
Single-level terminal blocks are available in four lengths, allowing users to select the correct terminal blocks for the application while maintaining a clean and uniform look. These blocks are designed for efficient wire management and can accommodate various connection types.
