What Are DIN Rail Terminal Blocks?
DIN Rail terminal blocks are modular devices used for connecting two or more wires to ensure a safe and efficient electrical system. Mounted onto a DIN rail (a metal strip commonly found in control panels, distribution boards, and industrial equipment), these terminal blocks make wiring neat, organised, and secure. They are essential components for building electrical control systems, especially in industrial settings where reliability is paramount.
Key Features of Degson DIN Rail Terminal Block Connectors
Our newly introduced Degson terminal blocks offer a host of features designed to ensure durability, safety, and ease of use. Some of the key specifications include:
- Connection Method: These blocks utilise a screw connection system, with cross & slotted screws for easy installation. The M4 screw thread, combined with a tightening torque of 1.2N.m, ensures that wires are securely fastened and reliable in performance.
- Materials & Fire Resistance: Made from PA (Polyamide), a high-grade insulation material, these terminal blocks meet the UL 94 V0 flame retardant standard. This ensures that the terminal blocks are capable of withstanding high temperatures without the risk of catching fire.
- Environmental & Safety Standards: Certified under IEC60947-7-1, the terminal blocks meet stringent safety and performance requirements. Furthermore, they are RoHS compliant, which ensures they contain no harmful substances. They also meet REACh SVHC standards, ensuring environmental safety.
- Mechanical & Electrical Performance: With impressive voltage drop ratings (≤3.2mV) and a successful temperature rise test result (≤45K), these terminal blocks are engineered for optimal electrical performance. Additionally, they have passed rigorous mechanical strength, rotational pull, and fixing support tests.
- Temperature Range: The Degson terminal blocks can operate in extreme environments, with an operating temperature range from -40°C to 105°C, making them suitable for various industrial applications.

Who Uses DIN Rail Terminal Blocks?
DIN Rail terminal blocks are widely used in industries such as manufacturing, energy, transportation, and utilities. These industries rely on complex electrical systems to control machinery, power distribution, and automation processes. Engineers, electricians, and technicians often use terminal blocks for wiring management in control panels and switchboards to ensure that connections are stable, secure, and easily traceable.
Why Are DIN Rail Terminal Blocks Used?
The primary reason for using DIN Rail terminal blocks is their ability to organise, secure, and simplify the wiring process in electrical systems. Without terminal blocks, electrical connections would be more susceptible to disconnections, faulty wiring, and short circuits. DIN Rail systems provide:
- Modular Flexibility: The open-end side panels and ability to easily snap into place allow for expansion and flexible design.
- Safety: Insulated terminals ensure that live wires are protected from accidental contact, reducing the risk of short circuits and electrical accidents.
- Ease of Maintenance: DIN Rail terminal blocks make it easy for technicians to trace and maintain wiring systems by grouping connections in an orderly fashion.
- Reliability: These blocks ensure a long-lasting, secure connection with minimal voltage drop and efficient heat dissipation.
Where Are DIN Rail Terminal Blocks Used?
DIN Rail terminal blocks are integral in a variety of industrial and commercial settings. Some of the most common applications include:
- Control Panels: Industrial control panels, which house a wide range of control equipment, rely on DIN Rail terminal blocks to connect wires from sensors, switches, and relays to their respective control systems.
- Power Distribution Systems: Terminal blocks are often used in distribution boards to manage the connections between incoming and outgoing power lines.
- Automation Systems: In manufacturing and production lines, automation systems use these terminal blocks to connect various components like PLCs (Programmable Logic Controllers), actuators, and sensors.
- Renewable Energy Installations: Solar power systems and other renewable energy solutions rely on robust, reliable wiring systems, where DIN Rail terminal blocks play a crucial role in managing connections between solar panels, inverters, and batteries.
