<strong>PCB</strong> terminal block is a modular, insulated device which mounts on Printed<br />

Circuit Board (<strong>PCB</strong>s) to secure two or more wires together. These terminal<br />

blocks consist of various individual terminals that are arranged in a long<br />

strip. They are useful for connecting wiring to the ground, and in the case<br />

of electrical power, used for connecting electrical outlets and switches to<br />

mains.<br />

The terminal body typically consists of a copper alloy having the same<br />

expansion coefficient as the wire which is intended to use. This not only<br />

prevents loosening but also reduces the corrosion caused by an<br />

electrolytic action between two metals. These terminal blocks are also<br />

known as electronic blocks.
