Finger-Safe Terminal Blocks

Finger-Safe Terminal Blocks

Product Features

Allen-Bradley has developed a product line of Finger-Safe terminal blocks that falls between the open-style NEMA/EEMAC terminal blocks and full-function IEC style terminal blocks. Features of our Finger-Safe product line include:


Fuse Blocks and Isolation Switches

In addition to our standard multi-rail terminal blocks, Allen-Bradley offers a wide range of fusible terminal blocks and isolation switches. Fuse blocks are available in three styles for greater application requirements: 1/4 in x 1-1/4 in fuse size, 13/32 in x 1-1/2 in fuse size, and the 1492-UF3 which uses a GMT-type alarm fuse. Isolation switches are also available in two separate sizes for matching circuitry.

Special Component Terminal Blocks

Allen-Bradley offers a varied line of special component blocks for your unique control designs and applications.
