Description

Single-level feed-through connections

ST terminals use spring-cage connections on NS35/7.5 DIN rails. Standard terminals have two connection points, TWIN terminals have three and QUATTRO terminals have four. Each terminal has one level and one electrical potential. Choose the nominal conductor size, connection count and electrical rating together; additional connection points do not create isolated circuits.
