Power Distribution Blocks offer configuration flexibility.
Press Release Summary:
Modular design of Edison finger-safe power distribution blocks lets users select and configure number of poles required by each application. Suitable for factory and field wiring, DIN rail-mount products are rated from 175-760 A, accept copper conductors, and maintain SCCR rating of 200 kA with proper fusing. Edison open-style terminal blocks, rated up to 760 A, are surface-mountable and engineered to maintain SCCR rating of 200 kA with copper conductors, 10 kA for aluminum.

AutomationDirect Introduces Power Distribution Blocks
Cumming, GA --- October 15, 2008 --- AutomationDirect announces the launch of a line of Edison power distribution blocks and terminal blocks. The distinctly different styles of short-circuit current rated (SCCR) power distribution blocks and terminal blocks are designed to support different application needs.
Edison's finger-safe power distribution blocks feature a modular design allowing users to select and configure the number of poles required by each application. Ideal for today's power circuit requirements, these blocks are engineered to accept copper conductors and maintain an SCCR rating of 200kA, with proper fusing. The finger-safe blocks are suitable for both factory and field wiring and are rated from 175A to 760A. Most finger-safe blocks are DIN-rail mountable and prices start at $8.25.
Edison open-style terminal blocks are also offered as a convenient way to manage power distribution needs in factory and field settings. Surface-mountable, they are engineered to maintain an SCCR rating of 200kA with copper conductors and 10kA for aluminum conductors. Ampere ratings of up to 760A make these blocks ideal for use in UL508A panels for branch circuit applications. The terminal blocks, starting at $6.75, are available in single, double, and three-pole configurations. For greater protection, safety covers are also available, starting at $1.50.
