Design And Testing Specifications For Push-in Terminals
The design and testing of push in terminals with clamping screws are based on a range of international standards and industry specifications, including but not limited to safety and performance standards such as UL486E and UL1059. These specifications define the performance requirements, material standards, and test methods for electrical connection components.
The structural design of push in wire terminal block needs to consider the mechanical parameters of conductive paths, clearances, and inherent spring mechanisms. During testing, a series of mechanical strength, electrical withstand, and environmental stress tests must be performed according to the standards.
In the push wire terminal block validation phase, referencing the test methods of UL486E and UL1059 is common industry practice. Standard-specified tests such as temperature rise testing, arc resistance testing, and dielectric strength testing are used to assess the stability of the terminals under typical operating conditions. These tests ensure that the terminals exhibit predictable electrical behavior during long-term operation.
