Disconnect terminal
An isolating terminal is a special version of a terminal block . It is generally used in electrical engineering for the manual separation of electrical circuits. For example, during the initial test in accordance with DIN VDE 0100 Part 600 of a newly built high-voltage system up to 1000 volts, if the neutral conductor isolating terminal is present, the slide is opened to separate the electrical connection between the neutral conductor (N) and protective conductor (PE).
Executions
- Neutral conductor disconnect terminal (short: N disconnect terminal), VDE 0100-718 requires the disconnectability of the neutral conductor for insulation measurement in public buildings; this can also simplify troubleshooting
- Equipotential bonding terminal, VDE 0107 requires the individual conductors to be detachable from the equipotential bonding busbar
- Ground disconnect terminal, also referred to as ground conductor disconnect terminal or PE disconnect terminal, are used on the secondary side of control transformers in order to increase serviceability and maintainability . The secondary earth connection can be interrupted temporarily for troubleshooting.
